Am I Gifted? Is My Child Gifted? Is This Right for Me?
Whether you or your child have been formally identified as “gifted,” or just suspect you might be, you’re welcome to set up a free 15-minute introductory call to see if we’d be a good fit for one another. I also recommend taking this brief informational but non-scientific quiz before our call to get a sense of your unique needs and gifted attributes. In general, I’m less concerned that you or your child meet a specific definition, cut-off, or label and more interested in understanding how common gifted attributes currently appear in your life. I can also refer you to testing professionals who can provide comprehensive diagnostic
Additionally, it may be helpful to read this article that I wrote on the Beyond Gifted Substack, which describes some of the common definitions of giftedness as well as the specific interpretation I use when working with individuals and organizations. Check it out here!

Coaching/Consulting: $200/50-minute session, with reduced fees when you purchase a coaching package or demonstrate financial need. I aim to offer services that affordable for as many people as possible, while also ensuring I can support my own business.
Workshops: Starting at $75/hour per person, with discounted rates for larger sessions (i.e., groups of 20 or more). Rates are dependent on the level of customization of the workshop and the duration.
Educational Placement: Starting at $3500 for full-service support, but fee is negotiable dependent upon the degree of my involvement. I can provide shorter consulting sessions for less intensive needs, but can also dedicate considerable time to helping you locate a permanent school for your child. I research gifted schools and programs in your target area, provide comprehensive reports on student achievement outcomes by school and district, discuss alignment with your child’s learning needs, and provide information about school demographics, finances, and school culture that is often impossible to glean from online sources alone. When possible, I also conduct informational interviews with current parents, staff, students or alumni on your behalf, and attend school tours with or on behalf of your family. Schools tours are done in person if in Colorado, or virtually if outside of Colorado.
Payment: I accept Cash, Zelle, Venmo, Paypal, and Stripe.
Where Are You Located?
I am based in Denver, Colorado but conduct virtual coaching, consulting, and workshops in all 50 states in the U.S. via Zoom, Teams, or your preferred platform. If you are located outside the U.S., I am happy to refer you to others who conduct similar work in your country. For an additional fee, I am able to travel within a 65-mile radius of the Denver Metro to deliver in-person workshops. I also accept occasional speaking engagements at National Conferences.
