About Claire

Where Medical Insight Meets Compassionate Presence

With a foundation as a cytotechnologist diagnosing cancer and pre-medical training complemented by over a decade in the medical device industry, I bring a rare blend of clinical expertise and heartfelt understanding to the end-of-life journey. Fluent in the language of medicine, I also deeply honor the poetry of the soul—acknowledging that at this profound time, every life story matters beyond the clinical facts.

A Global Heart with a Personal Touch

Having lived and worked across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the United States, I embrace the rich diversity of death rites, family dynamics, and spiritual customs. My approach respects and honors your unique cultural heritage and personal beliefs, crafting a sacred space where your final wishes are held with reverence.

Discretion and Excellence for the Discerning Client

Drawing on my experience as a former Vice President in Executive Search, placing C-suite and Board members within Silicon Valley biotechs and global medical devices companies, I am uniquely attuned to the needs of high-achieving individuals who require utmost discretion, flexibility, and seamless collaboration with their trusted advisors. My role is to support you elegantly and confidentially, coordinating with your existing circle to ensure a dignified and personalized experience.

Trauma-Informed, Heart-Centered Care

Having personally navigated profound life transitions across three continents and engaged deeply in transformative healing work, I bring a clear vessel and authentic presence marked by empathy and emotional availability. My journey enables me to create space for your healing and peace, accompanying you with grace and unwavering support.

Curating Your Legacy

Beyond compassionate care, I am honored to help you preserve your cherished memories in enduring memoirs, scrapbooks, or multimedia recordings—transforming your story into a timeless gift for those you love. Having made a short film and written two memoirs of my own, as well as ghostwriting memoirs for clients, together we can honor your life by recording it in an intentional and caring way.
