HEALING DESIGN

Where Emotional Intelligence Meets Experience Design

 

The future of AV isn’t just immersive—it’s emotionally intelligent.
As the AV industry faces greater complexity and burnout across teams, what’s often missing is a shared language of emotional fluency.
I work at the intersection of emotional regulation and conscious leadership to help AV companies build healthier, more human internal environments.

Why It Matters

Why emotional fluency is the missing link in AV environments.

Behind every AV system is a team. Stress, miscommunication, and burnout can quietly erode even the best operations.
Healing Design brings frameworks to help your staff feel more aligned, seen, and supported—enhancing performance by improving how people relate to one another.

The Human Advantage

What sets me apart—and why my approach creates lasting change.

In an industry driven by deadlines, specs, and scale, I offer something rare:
A seasoned AV integrator who speaks fluently about emotional fluency.

For over 25 years, I’ve lived at the intersection of systems, people, and pressure. I’ve built companies, led projects, and navigated the complexities of client demands and team dynamics. But I’ve also rebuilt myself—after burnout, emotional collapse, and years of ignoring the signals that most high performers are trained to suppress.

That lived experience is my credential.

Most people in this industry know how to build environments.
I know how to build people—and that makes everything work better.
