I’m a creative professional with unique range, passion, talent, and skills in multiple disciplines. Ideation is a natural part of who I am; every part of my humanity is brought to bear when working on any project. Whether it’s writing, audio production, editing, voiceover, interviewing, building community, or composing music, human connection and story are always the foundation.There are three pillars at the core of who I am: Creating, Connecting, and Storytelling.Everything I do in my life sits at the center of the triangle that these three pillars create. The thread that runs through the center of each pillar, wrapping itself around every endeavor, is Sound.The journey that started when I was thirteen years old - teaching myself to play the guitar, writing, and singing with the first three chords I could play - that journey continues now. I lend my voice to projects for radio, television, and more. I write music and make podcasts. I build entire evenings around the story arcs that soundtrack creates in a bar setting. When I'm writing prose, I envision you hearing my voice in your head.Sound is as intimate and powerful as touch, as world-building as sight, as triggering as smell. And for me, sound is not simply a consideration; it is the sense for which I have a natural one. It is part of me.I work from a place of creative instinct, letting my subconscious begin the process. I trust in the ability of my mind and my heart to do the initial groundwork and then build from there: editing, refining, polishing. Where is the story? Who am I talking to? How can we connect? What does this feel like and what does it do?My ideation process is constant, natural, and benefits from the organization-based minds of others. I have honed my ability, however, to switch between roles: the creator, then the editor, then the producer. Repeat. With other people's projects, I fall into whichever role is needed most, and relish all of them. My entire work history is dressed with multiple hats, and now I choose which I wear each day. Without story, we are lost. Without connection we are stranded.I use sound, words, and wonder to create relationships, build worlds, and break boundaries.
