I help SaaS leaders build trust, visibility, and inbound opportunity on LinkedIn | Writer on SaaS leadership, reputation building, and content that converts

I'm currently in a full-time SaaS leadership role while building Authority Signals, where I help other SaaS professionals grow their presence, sharpen their voice, and attract opportunity, without needing to go viral.

After more than a decade in SaaS, leading CS teams, building onboarding playbooks, and navigating the emotional pressure of being “the glue” - I realized something:

Great work doesn’t speak for itself.

Many of the most capable operators I know stay invisible online. They lead quietly, burn out privately, and get passed over for louder, flashier people.

I help them change that.

I work with SaaS leaders - especially in CS, GTM, and RevOps, to clarify their voice, tell the truth about their leadership journey, and build real visibility on LinkedIn.

I’m not a coach, and I’m not here to make you post every day.

Through my Leadership Narrative Sprint, I help mid-to-senior professionals reposition themselves around trust, clarity, and authority, not hustle or fluff.

I also write about the emotional reality of modern leadership:

Burnout from invisible labor

Boundaries in high-stakes roles

Building trust without performative branding

✅ 16K+ followers
✅ 1K+ newsletter subscribers
✅ Posts seen by over 1 million people

If you’re tired of doing great work in silence, and you want your next opportunity, client, or promotion to find you, I’d love to help.

People need to feel seen and heard.

Communication is critical.

Wrong doesn't cut it. 

You gotta get it right. 

Sometimes you need another opinion. You need a new perspective. You need a different point of view.

Let's get real: There are times when you need an outsider to drive your inside game.

Figuring out what to say and how to say it is a beast, especially when it comes to successful messaging because effective communication can be a real pain in the rump.

Discovering the best way to communicate with your crew, captivate your clients, and connect with the world that exists outside of your organization (as well as your personal thought bubble) can feel like a mind-numbing maze, especially with regard to equity, inclusion, and belonging in the digital age. 

This is where I come in to help.

With the mind of a scientist, the heart of coach, and the spirit of a savvy strategist, I talk the talk and walk the walk in ways that will take your business or personal communication project to the next level.

Through customized workshops, presentations, and consulting sessions, I’ll help you discover what works and doesn’t work for your unique situation. 

A master educator and recognized expert in message development for ethical team building, diverse leadership presence, and inclusive audience engagement, I have been coaching on the art and science of communication for 20+ years. 

I have worked with corporations, higher education institutions, and I’ve even had the distinct privilege to work with homeless women who are survivors of sexual abuse—one of the greatest honors in my life.

If you could use an honest perspective, then please reach out today. I can’t wait to hear your story and help you come up with original strategies and savvy solutions that work for you.

At this point, that voice in your head is asking:

"Why should we work together?"

"What does Dr. J. offer that's unique?"

Answer:

I have an intuitive grasp of the obvious.

I'm a peripheral visionary, which means I see stuff off-to-the-side.

I don't have an ebook to offer you, and I don't have a content template to tempt you, because my vision board was burned at the stake...by my mom.

You might be thinking: "Was that a joke?"

Yeah, a bad one.

But what I do is no joke...

I'm in the business of belonging by connecting people, one conversation at a time. 

I've developed a simple sauce that has helped over 18,897 people connect in the moments that matter most.

I'm available for coaching, workshops, and talks.

If you could use a helpful perspective that works, then reach out today.
