Senior Consultant (Captain)

Operations Manager | Assistant S3

IT and Communication Lead | Platoon Leader

As a Former Army Captain I'm passionate about helping individuals and teams unlock their full potential. 

Having worked in the Military, Manufacturing, and Financial Services industries I have continued to search for what truly makes organizations successful. From my experience this goal is enabled by organized and useable data. 

Proper use of data assets does more that just allows you to present and inform at all levels of the organization. It allows you to:

- Tell a story
- Take strategic action
- Focus on wins while mitigating losses 

Most organizations face an enormous problem when it comes to organizing, structuring, and using their data in a meaningful way. 

Nexla is primed to solve this problem by streamlining data process to quickly transform raw data into actionable insights. We do this by automating data workflows to enhance responsiveness to business needs. 

This not only speeds up decision-making, but allows for more frequent iterations of data products. 

If you are finding yourself in situations where you have mass amounts of data, but cannot use it to its fullest potential it might be time to reach out for some help.

You can get in contact with us at nexla.com (link in my profile), or send me a message and I'll be in touch.

Lets find some time to talk today!

I Coach Kids Before Their First Phone or Social Media … Zero Work for Parents | 30-Year Teacher | 20-Year Mom | Author | 2 Sport D1 Athlete

Do you know anyone who wishes their kids spent more time on social media, gaming, or endless scrolling? Neither do I.

But here’s what I see every day:
Kids asking for phones long before they’re ready ... because “everyone else has one.”
Parents feeling guilty, outnumbered, or just plain exhausted.
And families losing real connection to a screen that never stops demanding attention.

Hi!! I’m Kathy Van Benthuysen, a retired educator with nearly 30 years in the classroom and the founder of 𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲.

Here’s what I know:
A smartphone isn’t just a piece of tech — it’s a power tool.
And before we hand it over, we owe kids something more than, “Be careful.”

They need:
✅ To understand that social media is a highlight reel, not real life.
✅ To spot the dopamine traps and attention engineers waiting behind every ping.
✅ To build everyday responsibility, emotional strength, and habits that stick, long before the phone shows up.

That’s exactly what we do inside 
𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲.
It’s not about taking tech away forever.
It’s about helping kids earn trust and build skills so they can handle it well.

Our roadmap for families:
1️⃣ Start with the free 
𝐏𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.
You take it. Your child takes it. You both get a clear score and your child sees for themselves if they’re ready … or not yet.
2️⃣ If they’re not ready (and most aren’t),
the 𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 steps in with step-by-step, self-paced coaching for kids:

✅ Real conversations about tech & dopamine
✅ Emotional maturity & handling “no”
✅ Character, trust, and daily habits that prove they’re ready
✅ Less stress for you

📈 The results?
Kids who:
✅ Communicate better
✅ Spend less time glued to screens
✅ Earn trust instead of testing it
✅ Are just more fun to be around

Parents who:
✅ Feel confident holding the line
✅ Have clear steps instead of second-guessing
✅ Get back connection and calm 

I stepped away from my teaching career early to tackle this head-on because I’ve seen what happens when we just “hope for the best.”
Kids deserve better.
So do you.

📌 Want to see where your child stands?
Start with the free 
𝐏𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 
→ It’s in my Featured Section.

Let’s raise kids who are ready for tech ... 
and for life.
