WORKSHOPS & TALKS

I've been talking about and teaching creativity, culture, and identity my entire career, just inside different rooms. First as an ad agency founder, then as a professor of practice, now as a Heartivist.

Topics have included but aren’t limited to creative courage, challenger positioning, and positive social change, along with the framework at the center of my own practice: Identification, Inspiration, Expression, Connection, and Cultivation.
