Founder of Happy Mindset

Hi, I’m Dr. Ada! Thank you for visiting and reading more about me.

Since I was a child, I’ve loved creating things and solving problems to help others. I studied engineering to learn the tools that would help me do just that.

I spent the beginning of my career as an engineering professor, researcher, and consultant, helping organizations analyze, automate, and streamline their systems.

Then, in 2022 —after becoming a mother and reflecting on world events—I decided to make a shift. Now I use those same engineering skills to help high-achievers who feel stuck uncover (and shift) the mindset constraints holding them back.

Through a process I call mindset engineering, I don't offer generic advice or quick fixes. Instead, I apply precise, analytical thinking to help you discover what's really happening below the surface.

It's about uncovering your unique hidden mindset constraints and crafting well-engineered affirmations designed to create meaningful perspective shifts. This process is designed to empower you to gain deep clarity and identify the new pathways forward that are right for you.

My goal is to support you in getting unstuck and moving towards your goals.

Ready to stop feeling stuck and find your path forward? Begin by watching the video above to understand what's really happening.
