Contact

For Faculty & Scholars

If you’re a faculty member exploring support for your scholarly work, teaching, or career trajectory — and want to understand whether working together might be a good fit — the best place to start is a Research Clarity Call.

This is a brief, focused conversation where we’ll talk about what you’re navigating, what you’re looking for, and which path might make sense for where you are right now.

You don’t need to arrive with a polished ask. Curiosity is enough.

Common reasons faculty contact me include:

• They’re feeling disconnected from their scholarly work and want to figure out why.
• They’re ready to build better systems for their research and teaching,
• They want to explore what strategic support could look like.
• Or, they’ve been following Notes from a Work Friend and want to go deeper.

For Departments, Centers & Institutions

If you’re reaching out on behalf of a department, center, or institution, this space is for exploratory conversations about partnership.

Initial conversations are designed to clarify goals, constraints, and possibilities.

Institutions often contact me when they are:

• responding to faculty needs around retention and sustainable workload.
• seeking keynote speakers or workshop facilitators for conferences and retreats.
• navigating polarization or institutional change and looking for frameworks.
• Or, ready to translate stated values into durable systems and daily practice.
