Anti-Aging Games, LLC
Mar 2012 - nowScientific AdvisorThe Anti-Aging Games system is scientifically developed by a wonderful team of scientists in conjunction with Nolan Bushnell, Founder of Atari. Our games are designed to stimulate the brain of people who are mentally healthy and active and our system's tips are designed to teach how to reduce risk of early memory loss.Our scientists researched all of the cognitive training and brain fitness studies they could find from the last three decades. They carefully evaluated what was successful and what wasn't before deciding the direction our games should take. We also reviewed over 17,000 medical studies to distill the 253 early memory loss risk reduction tips that are on Anti-AgingGames.com. Show less

The Truitt Institute
Sept 2013 - nowCEO and FounderThe Truitt Institute is proud to provide trainings, seminars, and courses led by experts in the fields of Mental Health, Trauma Treatment, Neuroscience, Psychophysiology, Stress-Related Disorders, Holistic Health, Resilience, and Wellness. At the Truitt Institute, we believe in the power of the brain to heal itself. As a team of mental health professionals, we have witnessed the extraordinary power of psychotherapy and coaching to help people change their lives, families, and relationships. However, we know financial constraints, clinician availability, and stigma around mental health are barriers to healing for so many.Our mission is to radically rethink mental health and mental health treatment, using neuroscience to equip everyone with tangible, practical tools to take their mental health and wellness into their own hands. The NeuroTriad Model is the cornerstone of the Truitt Institute’s philosophy towards achieving optimal brain health and wellness. This transformative approach incorporates three foundational elements that guide our treatment protocols and educational workshops:- Trauma-informed Care: Recognizing the profound impact that traumatic experiences have on an individual’s overall wellbeing.- Neuroscience-based Approach: Utilizing the latest research and discoveries in neuroscience to understand and enhance the brain’s capabilities.- Resilience-focused Solutions: Emphasizing the development of resilience to navigate life’s challenges effectively.
