About Airan

After years spent working as a journalist, an attorney, an organizational manager and a conflict specialist, Airan Scruby founded Protea Consulting, LLC to combine her diverse skills. Now she helps businesses, families and individuals who are facing conflict or uncertainty find cooperative solutions that really work. 

Every situation and every relationship is different, and no one methodology or process works for everyone. Protea Consulting is focused on providing completely custom service to meet each client’s needs. Your experience begins with a free and confidential hour-long consulting session and an action plan. Airan’s expertise as a conflict specialist, attorney and organizational consultant is paired with a warm, down-to-earth approach that can turn a difficult situation into an opportunity for growth.

Protea Consulting is based in Des Moines, Iowa, where Airan lives with her busy family and their two dogs, a fluffy gray cat and an enormous flower garden. Initial consultation services are available in-person in the Des Moines metro and virtually for clients located everywhere else.
