Founder

I translate complex services and knowledge into a simple message your prospects can understand, which means your B2B earns more inbound leads and closes more sales.

How does an invisible expert become an undisputed authority?

For 10 years, Carl Richards wrote The Sketch Guy column for the New York Times. He built a bestselling book, a thriving advisory practice, and became peers with people like Seth Godin and Dan Heath. 

All through minimalist visuals that simplified complex financial concepts. 

But Carl wasn't a doodler. He had no art background. 

So how did a financial advisor with no artistic ability become The Sketch Guy? 

That's the story I'm telling in Episode 1 of my new podcast: Undisputed Authority. 

Each episode tells the story of how one expert became THE voice in their field. 

This isn't your standard interview-style podcast. 

It's a narrative built from deep research – I read Carl's books and articles, his keynotes, and listened to his podcasts to find the threads.

Then I had a conversation with Carl Richards to fill in the gaps. 

I'm gathering strategies and patterns you can apply to your expertise-driven business.

I help consultants uncover, document, and publish their expertise.

Nancy and Mark Duarte had no formal business training, no design training, and no public presenting experience.

And yet together, they built the world’s leading firm specialising in strategic communication – Duarte Inc.

They started their business from their apartment in 1988.

Today, Nancy is THE undisputed authority on storytelling and presentations. Her TED talk has 3.7 million views, her books changed how the world thinks about communication, and Duarte Inc. employs over 140 people.

How did she achieve all this?

She followed a principle best articulated by Cal Newport: focus on the one thing that moves the needle, not the many that nudge it.

That's the story I'm telling in Episode 4 of Undisputed Authority.

Global Human Resources Analyst Intern

Going to college is a big investment. 

You’re investing time, money, and other (limited) resources of yours to be there. 

And depending on your actions as a student, your investment leads to:

1) a strong network, relevant skills, and a job* at hand before you even graduate
2) a pile of debt and no clarity on your post-graduation plans

(*Or admission to graduate school)

I help students make sure they belong to the former group.
