About Me

Science is in my blood. 

My father was a rocket scientist. In the 1960’s, my father calculated and programmed the correct trajectories for Saturn rockets used for the Apollo missions that put humans on the moon. 

My father and mother both instilled in me a strong respect for scientific discipline that continues to be a primary influence in my life. This affected how I approached school, and how I performed in business--and in life. 

While my father helped shape trajectories for rockets, I’ve helped shape the trajectory of software products for the computer industry. 

I was heavily involved in some huge business successes, including creating Norton Desktop for Windows, and helping to define, launch and grow Norton Utilities, Norton Antivirus, System Mechanic, and First Aid. For more than 30 years, I helped shape several problem-solving software products designed to repair, clean-up, secure and speed-up computers for companies such as Symantec, McAfee, Phoenix, iolo and many others. 

As a business consultant and product manager, I brought my father’s detailed approach to solving problems. To each project, I’ve brought my innate intuitive nature and a love of scientifically supportable data. 

I’ve also been a lifelong creator and inventor. I’m a music composer, play many instruments, and have been performing and recording music all my adult life. 

In addition to bringing ideas and products to life, I’ve also dealt with death.  In 2016, I lost my loving wife, Jodie, to cancer. In the process of caring for her, I studied all the medical details of her cancer so I could ensure she was getting the best treatment. I found that learning the medical terms and concepts came quite naturally to me.

While I’m not a doctor or medical professional, I have a passion and aptitude for medicine and science, and I regularly read about the latest developments and discoveries in medicine, quantum mechanics, and technology.

When I developed disabling Long Covid in early 2021, I suddenly felt like a feeble old man who was no longer able to live a normal life. When I discovered that doctors had no understanding of how to deal with or truly heal Long Covid, I became very determined to overcome it and started acting like a detective.

I used all my creativity, intuitive ability, and scientific mind to understand, create, and successfully complete the protocol explained in this book. 

After 10 months of deep research, including trial and error on myself, I discovered a combination of plant medicines, mushrooms, and chemical compounds that rapidly and thoroughly eliminated every one of my Long Covid symptoms. I believe it completely removed the virus protein traces, which is the suspected root cause of Long Covid. 

I went from having to visit the ER with massive headaches and chest pains to being completely healed within 6 weeks.

Healing from Long Covid was a profound and highly emotional experience for me. I felt like I had been given a second chance at life and a new purpose, which is to help people heal by sharing this protocol with doctors, medical researchers, and anyone else who is still suffering from Long Covid. I am living proof that the effects of Long Covid can be effectively conquered.  

Note: I created the Schoch Protocol (which is my last name, pronounced “shock”) and created this website and wrote a book to share what I observed, researched, and experienced over the course of my struggle with what has come to be known as Long Covid.
