About
I provide exceptional above and beyond ergonomic consultations and evaluations from North of the SF Bay Area to South of Silicon Valley. I also offer remote evaluations worldwide. My clients range from individuals/home offices to large companies like Mozilla. I am a seating expert, and even provide car solutions.
Though I specialize in office ergonomics I have also enjoyed working with traditional artists and hobbyists, musicians, dental technicians/professionals, ultrasound techs, and more.

Shelby was able to observe my work setup and quickly assess an ongoing issue that was causing discomfort. She recommended a simple modification to my setup that I was able to test out immediately - it resolved my discomfort permanently to my amazement.
I am impressed by the care and attention she gives to every client.

Shelby helped me set up my “work from home” station during the pandemic. She pointed out some very easy and low cost solutions tailored to my environment, and explained in a clear way how to avoid causing myself injuries.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
An initial ergonomic evaluation is 60-90 minutes depending on scope of work, extent of symptoms, etc. Subsequent evaluations (follow-ups) range from 30-60 minutes. You are only charged for actual time spent on your evaluation.
My hourly rate for evaluations, researching, and reporting is $275 plus 1/2 time for travel.
I offer a limited number of sliding scale appointments per month for individuals with financial difficulties. Please contact me for details.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I take pride in my holistic approach to ergonomics which is the foundation of ergonomics: Human first. First we establish your neutral baseline, then we figure out how the world/your workspace is failing you.
I perform a detailed intake to make sure I am addressing your specific concerns, then I take stock and measurements of you and your workstation. After that we dive into education and work together to create an ergonomic plan that works for you. I will never force you to do anything, and I will never judge you.
I only recommend products I have successfully tested, and I am also quite resourceful with workstation “hacks” for the budget-conscious. Like I said, it’s about the entire human that is you.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
