I'm here to elevate, not eviscerate.

But that doesn't mean you won't hear the ugly truth.

It's been a minute.

The little 10-year old guy behind the lectern is me. In that moment, for the first time, I understood the power of effortless communications. Over time, what started as a natural inclination became the sum of my life’s work.

The world is full of incredible people and organizations. Lucky for me, I’ve worked with a bunch of them.

The Chicago Bears will win the Super Bowl.

If you’re a Packers fan, there’s a decent chance we’re gonna have a problem. In addition to my unhinged devotion to the beloved Bears, I like to hike in the mountains of Arizona with my fellow potter and remarkable wife, Shawna. I’m an obnoxious foodie, a collector of Japanese woodblock prints and eager to someday spend most months living abroad.

My promise.

I’ll provide powerful, creative solutions that will propel you in unmatched ways, but only if you own your portion of it. My style, which isn’t for everybody, is tough love with actionable solutions.

Experienced.

As a former Disney cast member, I learned about creating magical moments.

 

With six years on-faculty at Northwestern University’s Farley Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, I learned how to teach.

 

And as both entrepreneur and consultant to hundreds of corporate clients, I know business.
