Your thoughts, experiences and actions are your moat. Let's create a home for it.
(No need for the preamble? Already convinced? Skip to the bit where I offer personalized 1:1 coaching, systems audits, and packages starting at $100👇)
We’re drowning in a perfect digital storm.
You are at the helm of a boat and overwhelmed, trying desperately to see the lighthouse but the signal is dim and you’re loosing the narrative. Your narrative. In a world that is only getting more noisy, sloppy, and diluted, we are all white-knuckled trying to hold on to what we truly can call ours: our thoughts, experiences, intentions, actions.
You have jokingly (or maybe seriously?) considered joining a monastery in the mountains to escape it all. However, you have roots, responsibilities and relationships that make life meaningful too. If only you could find a middle way, a sane way to be in touch with the madness without going mad yourself.
This is the promise of Personal Knowledge Management, or PKM. Or having a second brain. Or a digital garden, or a zettelkasten, or a shoebox. These are all different words for a similar thing: setting up a sanctuary where you can carve out and curate your fragile ideas and core priorities, protected from the chaos. What you didn’t expect was the road to your PKM being fraught with obstacles. False starts, broken systems and wasted efforts. This stuff isn’t easy. It’s actually incredibly hard. Few of us have the same stamina for thinking as old school philosophers, yet this is the clarity of thought and action that we aspire to have, even as the chaos of life rages on around us. As more of us are looking to set up our PKMs, the mainstream advice has neglected considering differing neurological profiles (a.k.a. neurodivergence) as a critical factor in how success might look like for each of us. Once I understood my neurological make-up better, everything started making sense!
And now with the rise of AI as a slop content co-creator, it’s more important than ever to know what’s yours, and what’s not.
Hi there, I’m Fei and I’m here to help!
I believe it is possible, even realistic, to have a personal knowledge system that fits your brain. It’s where your thoughts, notes, and plans all have a home of their own, so you can let life be the wild beautiful mess that makes it worth living.
My foundation lies in fine arts and design before I worked 10+ years in marketing and urban planning for an architecture firm, and most recently for the past 3 years I’ve been dedicated to customer success at Tana, an AI-powered platform for knowledge.
Now, I work independently to help people bring more clarity, structure, and joy into their digital systems.
If your digital system is a “home” and your info is its “inhabitants”, I am your “interior designer”.
I’ve been where you are, banging my head against tools that didn’t quite click, thinking I was the problem. The truth is, we all think differently. There’s no such thing as the universally perfect system. What you need is the right one for you.
I work with people who are overwhelmed by options, afraid to “do it wrong,” or frustrated by setups that work for others but not for them. Some methodologies are top-down, others are bottom-up. How do you know which one suits you best?
Born and raised in Norway while being ethnically Chinese, I bridge Eastern and Western ways of thinking every day. It’s not a compromise, it’s a strength that gets me the best of both worlds. My goal is not to force any doctrine on you, only to guide you towards the one that works. With hundreds of hours helping people around the world troubleshoot, organize, and design workflows—I offer patient, practical, and personalized support. I’ll walk you through what you need, what to build, why it works, and how to use it.
Whether you're just starting out or already deeply invested in your existing ontology, I’d love to help you get unstuck, and find flow in your tools again.

Colophon
This page started off as a brain dump to AI which spat out a skeleton draft I could manually personalize and edit to my liking, then it was lovingly critiqued by smart people in my life (thank you to my Sunday Crew, Callum and Michelle!) whose feedback resulted in this final version you see now.
All errors and weirdness as a result are my own.
