I write things and connect people to ideas, resources, and each other. 
Scroll down to learn more about me.

Like Batman, I have a dual life.
I work in real estate by day and as a multilingual threat researcher & cybersecurity copywriter by night.
I rarely sleep enough, and I'm responding to signals at the most inconvenient times. 
I'm not a billionaire, but my tech, investigative and psychological skills are sharp, I love my community, and I share his obsessive determination and discipline in the fight for ethics and justice.
Like Batman, I have a beautiful library, and I know a villain when I see one.

My mission is to radiate confidence and peace in service to those in my care. 
I listen, learn, problem-solve, explain what I see, boldly go, and adapt efficiently, drawing on professionalism, determination, and resilience to intuitively communicate the world around me for the good of all. 

To do this well, I stay:

- Trained up
- Curious and creative
- Educated and informed
- Connected to my community
- Ahead of the threat
- Focused in fauda (chaos)

… and recover with ease.

What it's like to work with me.

Honor God. Playing for a purpose greater than yourself produces greatness. Get to know Him.

Love and Value Others. Help others improve and value their experience.

Impact. Leave everything better than when you got there. They should feel the shift.

See it First. Leaders Lead! I notice, I see, and then I act. 

Fast to the Fight. Face everything head-on- and be the first (and last!) on the scene.

Explore your world. ATD: Attention to detail! Leave no stone unturned. Inventory your resources and tools.

Be BOLD. Ask for what you need and want. Everything is negotiable, and everyone can win.

Work harder than everyone else. Hard work develops talent and character.

Be Indispensable. No one else can do what you do... so make your absence felt.

Delegate Responsibly. Give as much attention to your subordinates as you do to yourself... then let them fly.

Always Training. The more we learn, practice, and perfectly execute, the better we get.

Quiet Professional. Be humble. Be professional. Go where others won't and do what others don't. Get it done. Get home safe. 

Fear Nothing- Just get some! Innovation and breakthrough are built in adversity.

Have fun. If you don't love what you do, what's the point?

LOVE GOD

LOVE OTHERS

BE SAFE

LEARN

ADAPT

WORK HARD 

PLAY HARD

HAVE FUN

I am a survivor of complex violent crime, stalking, and cyberstalking.
To this day, I have never seen justice served.

I know what it's like to have to fight for basic human rights , with little to no access to resources in settings where they should never have been denied in the first place, and I have something to say: ENOUGH.

My goal is to help people get safe, stay safe, secure their world, find their spark again, be creative, build a village, and access resources.

This is how we experience freedom. 

I also want to see reform in the systems that enabled violence against me and countless other women and children (and men at times!) in our collective countries to occur and continue.

For this, advocacy and education is important.

I teach people how to be trauma-informed, resilient, kind to themselves and others, mindful, present in the moment, aware of their surroundings, and at peace... because it took me a long time to learn these skills, and there were not as many helpers along the way as there should have been.

When you choose to work with me, you're choosing to work with a mother, a survivor, and a warrior.
And not just me-- your choice helps me take care of my kids, as well, and they are even braver than I.

Additionally, every month, 10% of my business and any additional excess of funds goes straight back into a community of women who also deserve the same chance I built to make a life for myself.

You can feel good about choosing to work with me.
