Consulting & Advisory
I spent fifteen years inside the wellness industry before I became a scientist and a clinician. That’s the consulting advantage.
Independent clinical, scientific, regulatory, and AI-workflow consulting for organizations that need to know whether a health claim actually holds up. No product line. No sponsors. No incentive to tell you what you want to hear.
Four perspectives, one read
Most consultants can offer one of these. The value is in holding all four at once: a bedside clinician, a bench researcher, an industry operator, and a patient who learned the hard way where the standard playbook fails.
Bedside
A practicing emergency clinician who separates statistical significance from what actually changes a patient's risk.
Bench
Molecular biology and bioinformatics training to read the primary literature and ask what a claim is really acting on.
Boardroom
Fifteen years as a wellness-industry CEO — I know exactly how a health claim gets built, inflated, and sold.
Patient
An 80% coronary blockage at 44, despite doing everything the optimization world sells. I've seen where the playbook fails.
What I do
Where a straight read pays off
Engagements are scoped and quoted per project. Tell me what you're working on and I'll tell you whether — and how — I can help.
Scientific & Medical Advisory
Independent review of the science behind your product, pipeline, or positioning. Which mechanism, which evidence tier, what the data actually supports, and where the claims outrun it.
Evidence, Claims & Regulatory
Substantiation review for marketing and label claims, with an operator's command of how DSHEA, FTC, and FDA expectations shape what you can and can't say. I've sat in the CEO seat. I know where the exposure is.
AI & Automated Workflows
I run a two-brand media and data business almost entirely on AI automation. I help health and wellness teams adopt the same: where AI earns its keep, where it quietly creates risk, and how to build workflows that hold up.
Medical & Scientific Content Review
Credentialed accuracy review for health and longevity content. Bylined or behind the scenes — your YMYL content vetted by a practicing clinician and researcher before it ships.
Expert Consultations
One-off advisory calls for investors and teams evaluating the longevity, supplement, diagnostics, and health-tech space. Due-diligence-grade reads, fast.
Speaking & Keynotes
Talks for clinical audiences and companies on cardiovascular risk, longevity, and separating rigorous health science from marketing — built around a real near-miss and the framework that came out of it.
Why independence is the product
Most people selling health expertise also sell a product, a protocol, or a sponsorship slot. I don’t. No supplement line, no affiliate deals, no sponsors. That independence isn’t a slogan — it’s the reason my read on your evidence is worth paying for. If the data doesn’t support the claim, I’ll tell you, and I have no incentive not to.
Hard science. Honest signal. No sponsors.

The receipts
Why my read is worth paying for
The authority here is a pair most health consultants can’t claim at once: the molecular-biology and bioinformatics training to read the primary literature, and fifteen years building wellness companies that taught me exactly how a claim gets manufactured and sold. I audit now what I used to market.
MS, Bioinformatics & Computational Biology (University of Minnesota / Mayo Clinic); PhD candidate in the same program, dissertation in progress. Published cancer-epigenetics researcher. Emergency RN (CEN) at Mayo Clinic and a Family Nurse Practitioner candidate at Duke. Former supplement-industry CEO. At 44, an 80% blockage in my own coronary artery made the whole question personal.

Evidence-based health & longevity coaching
I’m building a 1:1 program for people who want to apply this evidence-first approach to their own health and longevity — without the hype, the protocols-as-product, or the sponsor-driven advice. It’s not open yet. Add your email and you’ll be the first to know when it launches.
