"I had one of the worst weeks of my life — and when I finally sat across from my therapist, I froze. I built Lisner so no one has to walk in empty-handed again."
Who I am
I'm a product leader turned founder. I've spent my career building B2B technology — at companies like Walmart, Dell and HP — turning complex problems into simple, human experiences. I sit at the place where humanities and technology meet.
Then I lived the problem myself. After one of the hardest weeks of my life, I sat down with my therapist with everything to say — and couldn't find the words. Talking with friends in the neurodivergent community, I saw how common that is. Therapy is 50 minutes a week; life is the 167 hours in between.
Lisner is the confidant for those hours — a voice companion that listens in the moment, keeps everything private on your phone, and helps you bring what matters to the room.
Not a journal. A confidant.
The one you tell the real things to — at 2 AM, in the parked car, mid-spiral. It remembers everything and judges none of it, so you never sit down to a blank page. Not a tracker. Not a monitor. A listener.
What I'm building
Speak, don't type
Tap once and talk the moment a thought lands. Lisner captures and sorts it for you.
Built for how different minds work
For neurodivergent and overwhelmed minds, finding the words is hard. Lisner meets you in your own voice.
Private by design
Your words stay on your phone. Never sold, never shared without you.
Makes the hour count
Share what you want, and your therapist walks in knowing what changed — patterns, not paperwork.
The journey so far
The week I couldn't find the words
Living the gap firsthand — then hearing how common it is among neurodivergent peers — made the problem impossible to unsee.
Lisner ships to the App Store
A voice-first iOS app — on-device transcription, private by default. Android and the clinician dashboard followed.
Talking to the people who need it
Therapists and patients shaped what Lisner became — a calmer, simpler way to be heard between sessions.
Getting it into the world
Bringing Lisner to more people and more therapists, one honest conversation at a time.
