About Me
I help others communicate by visualizing how we navigate complex ecosystems and social dynamics.
Sometimes I wear glasses.
I started out in graphic design because I cared about social community and civic engagement, connecting people to messages I believed in. As I honed my craft, I came to realize that I what I was actually interested in was how and why people were connecting to those messages.
A masters in communication helped me study more closely community ecosystems and social power dynamics, and I began engaging with intersecting practices involving connected learning, transmedia participation and collaborative leadership. I moved into strategic communications and facilitation, focusing my work in human-centered strategy and research, narrative framing, systems thinking and interdependence.
The rest, as they say, is history a work in progress. Keep curious!
