Conventional wisdom tells us to meet people where they are. But if we aim where people are, we miss showing them where they could be. Integrating tools from the fields of behavioral science, psychology, and linguistics, with cinematic storytelling, I uncover where people are capable of going and use words, images, and stories to move them.

As a leader in media development and connective storytelling for over 20 years, I've sought to identify, support, and mobilize voices from a diverse range of lived experiences — to explore emergent patterns and pathways, apply creative mindsets, develop new skills and capabilities, and help others to do the same.

We've all been there. We're told to innovate; to imagine anything is possible and think outside the box. But that's not how innovation works. Creativity thrives when we're confronted by obstacles that force us to find new routes, perceive new possibilites for change, and then do the hard work to acheive them.
