about Alan

---

I was probably destined to be an astrologer from early on. When was 7-12 years old, I devoured the Greek myths, reading them behind all my school books. Astrology is in part of course based on interpretation of this mythology, and became second nature in my thought process early on. 

That combined with an intuitive chart and life (a Neptune sun conjunction in Libra/Moon in Pisces) has given me a love for helping people unfold astrologically or otherwise therapeutically throughout all of my career.

Fun times reading charts at Renaissance Festivals and playing dress up to boot! We Neptunians love this sort of thing... Of course, I also do readings from home, and on Zoom.

My current endeavors in life are multi-layered; in astrology, as well as other areas. In astrology, I am writing books, seeing clients privately, and seeing customers at renaissance festivals for short readings as well. The ability to see so many people in a year has given me the data and anecdotes to be able to write not based on speculation, but on many clients' experiences. 

My day jobs throughout life have been mostly in the healthcare field; first as a hospital corpsman in the navy, then various healthcare fields in my 20s, until I finally settled into inpatient psychiatric work through midlife. 

For the last 12 years, I have worked at Emory University Hospital and Grady Hospital in Atlanta in high-intensity neurological ICUs and epilepsy monitoring units, monitoring seizures and brain function 24/7. Now semi-retired, I monitor EEGs from home, and specialize in Quantitative EEG.
