Broad Problem Scope

From sleep habits to research strategies, I work on whatever matters most to you, using general-purpose techniques that apply broadly.

Long-term, pattern-focused problem-solving

I tackle underlying patterns rather than isolated incidents. For instance, struggling with a research paper? We’ll explore your broader writing habits to make every future paper easier.

TESTIMONIAL

What Our Client Says

I found [Carson's coaching] extremely useful during SERI-MATS. As a wild estimate I would say it made me 30% more effective. Most weeks I went into [coaching with Carson] with a jumbled assortment of thoughts pointing in some direction, and came out with them organized enough that I could act on them, on several occasions significantly changing my plan for the next few days’ work. I think the reason I found it so useful is that Carson had both (i) some background context on my work, and (ii) skill/willingness/time to help me think things through, while the people I usually talk to on any given day just have one or the other (or neither).
