I'm passionate about
connecting people and ideas -- championing business knowledge for artists and designers, and helping everyone stay in touch with their own innate creativity.
An idea worth spreading
1. Lack of business education is one of the great social problems of our time. It makes it hard for democracy to function. 2. Everyone is an artist, but also a businessperson.
