When language matters, interpreting is not enough…

Written and spoken communications can contain critical warning indicators of intent, escalation and risk—but those signals are often subtle, misunderstood or missed.

I help law enforcement agencies, security professionals and mental health specialists make informed decisions using scientific language analysis to prevent targeted violence at K-12, workplaces, houses of worship and other public-facing locations that are vulnerable to attacks.

I bring a research-driven and practical approach to forensic and tactical linguistics, grounded in both academic scholarship and applied professional experience.
