I'm passionate about
Collaborative literacy, visual thinking, how imagination influences probabilities, applied gamification of inner science, and the development of higher A.Q.
An idea worth spreading
Collaboration is an antidote to hyper-individualism, and collaborative literacy is our social prescription for accelerated problem-solving around complex and systemic challenges. I believe that our capacities to design and lead regenerative social spaces will become more and more crucial. Connection is medicine and it can be orchestrated with skill.

The TED story
My company was invited to participate as visual thinkers and graphic facilitators at TED 2009, TEDActive 2011 and TED Global 2011 and I was a speaker at Long Beach in 2011. I and was thrilled to be there, of course, and it was simultaneously the most nerve-wracking experience of all time.
Things you might not know
Because I don't suffer from an overdose of humility, most people know what I'm good at. The only exception: singing.
