My Journey
I am a former tech executive turned entrepreneur, life designer and mentor. Inspired by the profound impact of the Stanford DCI program and Designing Your Life, I started Alt Lyf to help people navigate difficult life transitions. I empower individuals to reshape their careers and retirements using design thinking principles through workshops and one-on-one coaching. I mentor social entrepreneurs in the Dalai Lama Fellowship Program and teach entrepreneurship.
I have published books and articles about 3d printing, career choices and travel adventures with my Labrador. The dog is my spirit animal and everything I do reflects the curiosity and enthusiasm it brings to my life and work.
Alt-Lyf’s Mission
We empower individuals to design their next life chapter by cultivating a design thinker's mindset. Through intentional thinking and purposeful action, we help them discover a renewed purpose and an identity beyond their careers so they can tackle life transitions.
If you are going through the messy phase of a transition, feel free to have a private chat with me.
