Clarity begins with …
Your knowledge
system
Helping high-achieving professionals design a calm, structured Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) system that supports their best thinking.
For nearly two decades, I've worked across information management, records governance, library science and executive operations. Across every environment, I noticed the same pattern: people weren't overwhelmed by work itself - they were overwhelmed by the systems holding their work together.
Knowledge Atlas™ exists to change that.
The structure you build inside determines the clarity you experience outside
Bringing order to the invisible layer of your working life
Your inbox, your tools, your tabs - none of these run your day. Your internal information architecture does.
My work sits at the intersection of Personal Knowledge Management (PKM), cognitive load theory and practical information organisation. I help high achievers reclaim mental bandwidth by redesigning the systems that shape attention, clarity and momentum.
With a career spanning justice portfolios, executive briefing environments, digital records systems (EDRMS/ECM), library science and genealogical research, I bring an integrated perspective to how people store, retrieve and make meaning from information.
The path widens as your system becomes clearer
Why Knowledge Atlas™ exists
Throughout my career, I saw capable professionals lose momentum - not because they lacked intelligence or discipline, but because they were operating on an unconscious system.
Two inboxes.
Scattered notes.
Screenshots.
Saved articles.
Open loops everywhere.
Their Digital Second Brain wasn't broken.
It simply had no structure.
Knowledge Atlas™ is my response: a consulting practice that treats your inner information architecture as a strategic asset. When your system becomes conscious, portable and deliberately designed, clarity returns almost immediately.
This work is more than productivity. It restores cognitive lift, creativity and emotional ease.
Who I work with
High performers navigating complex information environments
Knowledge workers, executives and public servants
Professionals balancing corporate tools with personal systems
Individuals seeking clarity, calm and a structured Digital Second Brain
People ready to upgrade the internal systems behind their thinking
Clarity emerges when your system finally has structure
What I help you solve
Information overload and cognitive fragmentation
Tool fatigue and scattered digital habits
Overwhelming inboxes, tabs and conflicting capture points
Difficulty retrieving what you know, when you need it
Lack of structure behind goals, reflection and creative thinking
A personal information system that feels unconscious rather than designed
A method built for clarity & momentum
My consulting approach blends Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) with my PARAR™ model - a refinement of Tiago Forte's PARA system, designed for clients who need clearer boundaries between active work, long-term knowledge and archival memory.
Every engagement follows the arc of:
Capture → Organise → Synthesise → Express → Maintain.
This is how clarity becomes a habit, not a once-a-year clean-up.
