Bio
I'm an ex-Apple creative veteran who worked my way from retail store employee to executive speechwriter over a 13-year career, designing presentations given to Steve Jobs, authoring Apple’s Credo, and speechwriting for Angela Ahrendts along the way.
In 2018, I left Apple to reconnect with meaning and purpose and joy, and found myself called to help others do the same. Today I'm running a brand-vision writing agency that helps purpose-driven leaders and organizations rally hearts and minds around what fuels their soul—Cause:Effect Creative. I'm also building The Land of Make+Believe, a fourteen-acre event and retreat space for audacious ideas and their people. And I'm hosting the podcast Hyperactive Imagination, a high-voltage channel for creativity.
Currently an advisor to Community.com, The Believe Initiative, Mind Cure Health Inc., and others, I reside on 14 acres in the Sierra foothills of Murphys, California, with three Babydoll Southdown sheep, two Angora goats, a Suri alpaca, two Potbelly pigs, and two dogs.
Still curious? Myers-Briggs: ENTP. Enneagram: Type 8. Ice cream: Ben and Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Cookie.
