Strategist, Leadership Intuitive, Communication Architect
Here's the unlikely combo driving how I lead.
Thousands of coach conversations. Thousands of hours in the painting studio. Two very different ways of learning to read -and navigate -what's real.
Over 16 years I've mapped patterns of human momentum — what creates it, what stalls it and what's often so easy to miss from the inside. Mind-set and speaking body is a winning combo.
This fieldwork is now a research-based playbook — a clear map, rapidly applied! —built from real client work, their real mess-ups and real results. Brought to life in every session.
I've rolled up my sleeves at IDEO, Pixar, Autodesk, Allianze & Stanford University -and start-ups like Strong Brew, Oru Kayak & Kreatives -guiding motivated individuals and teams to shape personal momentum in a vector towards something specific, visible and constructive.
Teams unstuck. Conversations turned generative. Greater respect and generosity.

Some days you can find me teaching in the MBA & Masters Interaction Design programs at California Collage of the Arts. I've served as advisor to The Making Learning Visible Institute at Harvard & the U.S. Department of Defense on feedback-driven learning systems.
In Star Wars, the rebel base is on the fourth moon of the planet Yaven. I once told George Lucas my last name. He laughed -he thought he made it up.
Close enough.
