Consult & Connect

Available Services

Phone Sessions:
Enjoy a chat with me, get your questions answered or just say HI. Of course it's best to have your questions handy before we talk. I can arrange a live phone call for most any length.

$4 per minute. (30 minute minimum. Pre-paid 3 days before the call).

Zoom Meetings:
Maybe you'd like to schedule a live Zoom chat? We can do that. Having the advantage of seeing each other, we can do more of a "show and tell" session, which saves travel time if you don't live close to San Francisco.

$4 per minute. (45 minute minimum. Pre-paid 3 days before the call).
