Verse Builder - Connector - Collaborator - Buddhist - Father - Coach: I think BIG, am playful, social, and broadly enthusiastic. I value the process as much as the result and believe that there is always something great to discover in a “failure”. Though varied in scope, my work has always focused on improving organizations (consulting work, startups, community events, even coaching my daughter’s soccer teams). I have gift for bringing people together and creating cohesion. Building The Verse: An ecosystem for the development experiences (art and games) that shift consciousness and health. We are building breath based games (breath as a game mechanic), attention games (mindfulness/meditation), and prosocial games (tend and befriend). More @ https://versebuilding.com/ <>Adventures In Breath (AiB): The Verse is building games that gamify and playify therapeutic breath practices to reduce stress and anxiety within a compelling and immersive game narrative. Each breath ritual ties to a scientifically validated breath therapeutic, and is expressed within the game through interactivity mechanics/responsive design. The Verse’s first breath microgame, ‘Adventures in Breath: Solace’, teaches players how to modulate their breath in response to stressful game events by activating their vagus nerve/parasympathetic system.<>Karma The Six Realm Game: We have built, and continue to build, a database of prosocial game mechanics. Simulating karma (choice/action) and inviting the player to experiment with their present situation. This links game mechanics to the core values of prosociality/tend & befriend, enabling the players to experience the notion of choice in an interactive experience.

WalkXR provides digital experiences that promote empathy, perspective taking, and socialization. What does GRIEF look like? What does HOPE look like? What does FORGIVENESS look like? What does AWE look like? What does BULLYING look like? I create synergies. I build platforms that empower people.
