My focus is helping companies identify, seize, operationalize, and monetize opportunities and position themselves for sustainable success. In a world filled with consultants that rarely have the experience, approach, or mindset to add real value, I take the "con" out of con-sulting. I'm a result-ant.I'm a trusted Advisor, Perspective Wrangler, Re-Framer, Content Synthesizer, End-user Empath, Opportunity Sleuth, Storyteller, Collaborator, Future-maker, and Rain-maker.Skills: Research, Data Acquisition, Data Analytics, and Insight Development, Design Strategy, Strategic Design, Mission and Culture Leadership, P&L Manager, M&A Guide and Facilitator, Brand and Communications Development, Team Leadership and Collaboration Coach, Technology Integration, Digital Transformation, Product Development, et al.I’m open to collaborating, adding value, making an impact, and making a difference. That might look like an advisory role, member of an investment team, a collaborator, a board member, a mentor, a speaker, a reviewer, evaluator, or just a trusted friend offering up my two cents. I’m open to all the possibilities.I'm currently focused on the intersection of AI, AR, and XR in immersive and collaborative platforms meaningfully applied to work, "workplace," LBE, retail, hospitality, and education.While I have a breadth of knowledge and range of experience in many industries and across the conception and design of products, platforms, services, and environments, I believe my greatest value is what I don’t know. I value asking new questions rather than applying old answers. I prefer to seek bigger opportunities rather than merely solving immediate problems. I value radical collaboration, rapid prototyping, and failing early to succeed sooner. I value doing the right things before doing things right.I see the world of possibility, and what may seem like impossibility, through the lens of human behavior. I understand the synergy, tensions, and interactions between usability, usefulness, viability, and feasibility. While new business models and new technologies often enable the future, the future almost always seems to be driven by deeply ingrained human needs and our fundamental needs for connection, interaction, and experience fueled by our innate empathy, curiosity, and optimism.I don’t have a trademarked n-step process, a proprietary methodology, a secret sauce, or the need to recycle old work and old thinking. I bring energy, fresh perspectives, commitment, collaboration, humor, and a few better questions to everything I do.#OPEN
