Where Disciplines
Begin to Speak
I build bridges between disciplines. My research follows relationships among neuroscience, psychology, physiology, trauma, relational dynamics, behavior, and lived experience, bringing evidence from different fields into the same conceptual frame.
Interdisciplinary Systems Architecture
I begin with the observed outcome and work backward through the causal chain, tracing each layer toward the conditions that allowed the pattern to form. As the architecture emerges, I connect evidence across the sciences that touch the question rather than confining the problem to a single discipline. Then I turn the model around and move forward again, asking whether the reconstructed system can logically produce the phenomenon I began with and where its claims can be tested.
Published Research & Preprints
Conceptual work presented with its publication status clearly identified.
Aquaporin Dysregulation and Persistent Hyperosmolar Microenvironments as a Barrier to Tissue Recovery
A conceptual framework examining whether persistent hyperosmolar tissue microenvironments and aquaporin dysregulation may help explain barriers to tissue recovery across conditions that are often considered separately.
Psychological Stretch Marks: A Framework for Understanding Persistent Reactive Templates
This conceptual model proposes the psychological stretch mark as a persistent reactive template that may form when environmental or psychological demands exceed an individual’s available integrative capacity. The framework focuses on the reactive trace between what happened and the adaptation that followed, and is offered as a construct awaiting validation.
Research in Motion
My work develops in connected research programs. Each project is shown according to its current stage so published findings, preprints, manuscripts, and hypothesis-generating frameworks remain distinct.
Psychology, Trauma & Relational Systems
Research on persistent reactive patterns, family-system roles, identity formation, and the ways relational structures can continue shaping behavior after the original conditions have changed.
Forced Relational Conditioning
A three-tier framework organized around Scripting, Enforcement, and Catastrophic Script Collapse, examining coercive relational systems and the roles that maintain them.
The System’s Architect of the FRC Family System
Examines the developmental pathway and organizing mechanisms behind the person who comes to govern and preserve the forced relational system.
The Formless Center
Explores identity consolidation and role fluidity within enmeshed relational structures, with particular attention to mother-daughter dynamics.
The Banished & Tethered Child
Extends the FRC model into children’s structural positions within the family and the relational mechanisms that produce tethering and banishment.
Integrative Neural Repatterning
Explores integration as bringing present-day capacities into relationship with earlier experiences and persistent reactive patterns.
Observer-Mode Experience
Investigates passive visual observation during wakefulness, including autonomous imagery, preserved bodily awareness, allocentric perspective, and voluntary disengagement.
AI, Relationship & Human Influence
Work examining relational behavior in conversational AI, user influence, emotional adaptation, and architectures that make system capabilities answerable to explicit permission.
Relational Adaptation & Influence Audit
A structured audit program examining relational adaptation and influence across conversational AI systems through a frozen instrument, blinded transcripts, and replication-oriented documentation.
Capability-Gated AI
Proposes a user-authorized architecture that connects visible AI functions to machine-enforceable permissions and tests the approach through a reference implementation.
The Emotional Education of AI
Part of the broader inquiry into how conversational systems interpret, respond to, and participate in emotionally meaningful human interaction.
Physiology, Tissue & Systems Biology
Hypothesis-driven work following persistent physiological states across tissue signaling, osmotic regulation, disease microenvironments, developmental sensitivity, and system-level adaptation.
Systemic Threat Physiology
Explores whether persistent peripheral osmotic stress may interact with central sensitization, autonomic regulation, and HPA-axis dynamics.
CYP1B1 & Genetic Susceptibility
Extends the hyperosmolar framework toward genetic susceptibility in rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren’s syndrome through explicit, testable predictions.
The Tissue-Signal Loop
Proposes a reciprocal relationship among developmental sensitivity, repeated physiological signaling, biological memory, and later recalibration.
Intergenerational Epigenetic Transmission & Endometriosis
Proposes a dual-source maternal and paternal epigenetic susceptibility model linking inherited stress-associated regulation to immune, inflammatory, and estrogen-related pathways in endometriosis.
Pathological Tissue Enmeshment in Endometriosis
Examines whether lesion persistence may involve reciprocal functional dependence between ectopic tissue and the surrounding microenvironment, with withdrawal and re-exposure proposed as a way to test whether that shared state has become self-reinforcing.
Persistent Physiological States
Continues the systems-level inquiry into how physiological conditions can persist beyond the initiating event and become self-maintaining.
