Why I wrote this book
I’ve spent years working in and around high-consequence decisions, the kind where small misunderstandings turn into big problems. Over time, I kept seeing the same pattern: the failure usually wasn’t a lack of intelligence or effort. It was a loss of clarity.

We now live in an environment that produces endless inputs: dashboards, alerts, feeds, summaries, hot takes, AI-generated content, and metrics that look precise but aren’t always meaningful. That volume creates a specific kind of risk. Not just misinformation, but confusion. The feeling that you cannot tell what is real, what is important, and what is simply loud.

Signals in the Noise is my attempt to name that problem plainly, and to offer a framework that actually holds up under pressure.

How it came to fruition
This book didn’t come out of a single idea. It was assembled over time, from notes I kept after incidents, after difficult calls, after watching teams move fast with incomplete context, and after seeing how “confidence” can get manufactured inside systems.

I wrote, rewrote, and cut it down repeatedly until the argument could stand on its own without hype. I wanted it to be readable, practical, and honest about the tradeoffs: speed versus certainty, automation versus accountability, and convenience versus credibility.

If you’ve ever felt the modern information environment makes it harder to think clearly, you’ll recognize what I’m pointing at.

What you’ll get from it
Signals in the Noise is built around one promise: you can learn to separate what matters from what merely demands attention. The goal is not to “win the news cycle” or to optimize for impressions. The goal is durable judgment, the kind that survives ambiguity.

If you buy it and it resonates, the best way to support the launch is simple: share the link with someone who’d appreciate it.
