Bids that Require Advance Preparation

2D opening = unspecified weak two in a major
2H/S opening = 5M, 4+m weak

General Bidding Style

1NT range = 14-16 NV 1/2/3 and 15-17 otherwise
2NT range = 19-21 NV 1/2/3 and 19+-21 otherwise
We systematically open balanced 11s NV
Third hand openings can be light with only 4M

Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand

2/4th and Rusinow vs NT, std honor leads in the middle of the hand.
3rd/low and std honor leads vs suits.

Defensive Signals

UDCA always and Rev. Smith against NT. Signal priority is attitude, count, SP. Suit preference becomes priority when continuation in the suit is perceived unsatisfactory (e.g. stiff in dummy in a suit contract).
