I have been privileged to collaborate with forward-thinkers, facilitate single or series of workshops and speak to all kinds and sizes of groups across the country, interview creative thinkers and doers, coach individuals, participate and contribute to others’ initiatives, and follow my own creative muse in a wide variety of projects.

Thanks to all of you who have added so much to my life, knowledge and expertise. I look forward to continuing creative connections and forming new ones….
