How I work
Every engagement starts with a diagnosis. What gets built after depends on what the diagnosis finds and what your timeline requires.
Narrative Risk Audit
See where your story fragments before partners do.
Duration: 2 to 3 weeks
A structured diagnostic conducted before your next high-stakes external moment. I interview your key functions, review your external-facing documents, and score the gaps. You get a prioritized report and an executive readout with a clear picture of what to fix and in what order.
What you get
- Stakeholder interviews across Clinical, Regulatory, Medical Affairs, and Commercial
- Document review of active external-facing materials
- Narrative Coherence Score across five dimensions
- Gap Analysis Report with prioritized risk mapping
- 90-day action plan tied to your milestone timeline
- Executive readout to the leadership team
Narrative Alignment Sprint
One science. One story. Zero conflicting versions.
Duration: 6 to 8 weeks
Builds what the Audit diagnoses. A facilitated cross-functional process that produces one unified scientific narrative your team can defend in any room with your KOLs, your investors, and your FDA reviewers. Includes a simulated stress test before your real external exposure.
What you get
- Core Positioning Framework: one canonical scientific claim agreed across all functions
- Messaging Architecture by audience: KOLs, investors, regulatory, BD partners
- Claim Substantiation Matrix: every external claim mapped to its evidence source
- Cross-functional alignment workshop with all stakeholders
- Narrative Playbook: the single document every function pulls from before external exposure
- Pre-external Stress Test: simulated advisory board or investor Q&A
- 30-day follow-up support
Truth Architecture Build
Infrastructure that makes consistency inevitable, not aspirational.
Duration: 3 to 6 months
For companies that need the story to hold after I leave. The Build puts governance, modular content, and onboarding systems in place so that narrative coherence survives new hires, data updates, and the next milestone without starting from scratch every time.
What you get
- Narrative Governance Framework: who owns what, how conflicts get resolved, how language gets approved
- Modular Content System: pre-approved, scientifically vetted content blocks each function builds from
- Monthly Narrative Health Checks
- Pre-milestone Stress Tests before each major external exposure
- New hire onboarding protocol
- Quarterly executive reviews
Not sure where you are?
Take the five-minute assessment. Answer questions about your team, your milestone timeline, and how your functions currently communicate about the science. You'll get a score and a plain-language read on your narrative risk level before you talk to anyone.
Credentials
Why this works when internal meetings don't
The people who need to reconcile the story have conflicting incentives.
-
Your CSO is protecting scientific precision.
-
Your CMO is protecting the clinical relationship.
-
Your Head of Medical Affairs is holding the version control together with both hands.
An external voice with no stake in any one function can do what internal alignment meetings can't.
I come in as a scientific and commercialization peer. I've held a pipette. I've sat in leadership and investor meetings. I've been in the agency debriefs when MLR, clinical or R&D veto'd months of work for being promotional.

SAY THIS, NOT THAT.
Building a lexicon and single source of truth that unifies.
Every department gets a reference document.
It answers one question: what can we say, what can we not say, and what are the approved variations in between.
Not a style guide. Not a messaging deck. A claim-level reference any function can use before any external conversation without asking someone to adjudicate it in real time.
