storytelling

Your story matters. Your loved ones’ stories matter. 

As an expert 'lifestorian', I've made it my mission to help people capture their life stories.

Using my signature 'Life Story Capture' process, I've developed a technique based on narrative psychology, active listening, and the science of reflection. I've listened to hundreds of life stories and lived life experiences, and I know the positive impact recording these stories can have.

Storytelling is an inherently social practice that fosters intimacy and connection with others. It's about remembering that we belong to each other. By sharing our experiences and wisdom across generations, we can build new bridges of empathy and understanding.

My work goes against the grain of the filtered #livingmybestlife culture. It's about the power of our human stories in their most real form. The 'Life Story Captures' I create are cherished records of loved ones' voices, lives, stories and spirits.

Everybody has stories to share. It's about holding space for others to speak about their lived life experiences. That's why I created a signature interview method that creates a comfortable and supportive environment for sharing.

As a 'lifestorian', I'm in the business of collecting wisdom. I love immersing myself in the truths and life lessons that spring from the stories I record. It stirs my soul and strengthens my belief in humanity.

If you want to document a loved one’s or your personal lived life experiences, I'm here to help. My private, unique approach to capturing life stories through narrative psychology and active listening has made me a sought-after 'lifestorian'.

I work on a special request basis to ensure the utmost care, attention and detail in each project.
