Hi, I’m Jess.

I'm a creator, author, technology leader, cyberpsychology expert, and advocate for integrated healing, exploring the intersection of technology, neurobiology, and human well-being. This is my newsletter: Root Cause, where I share insights on healing from MCAS, digital wellness, and the power of integrative approaches to health.

My background bridges multiple worlds - from leading technology teams in Silicon Valley to conducting doctoral research in MCAS recovery and integrated healing. With undergraduate work in molecular biology and extensive study in neurobiology and nutrition, I bring both scientific rigor and practical experience to complex health challenges. Now, from my regenerative farmstead in Western North Carolina, I help others find their path to healing while maintaining demanding careers. This unique combination of technical expertise, academic research, and personal experience allows me to approach MCAS recovery from a comprehensive, evidence-based perspective.

After reversing my own MCAS through a unique combination of neurobiology, nutrition, and psychological approaches, I've dedicated myself to helping others find their path to healing while navigating our increasingly digital world. My experiences - from leading high-stakes tech environments to rebuilding my health - have taught me that true healing requires addressing both our physical and digital environments.
