I am a writer, speaker, corporate mischievist, and generally curious student of life. I change minds (most often, my own), casting a dubious eye on the line between work and play. I hold a vision of a future where all industry is a force for healing and any exceptions compost themselves into history.

I have been working towards this vision with global companies since 2004, bringing together activists, executives and thought-leaders. I share what I find out as a I go, telling as much truth as I can figure out how to spell. (Or, in the case of Materiality, how to respell.)

Originally from Toronto, Canada, I spent a decade based in New York City and recently relocated to Montreal, all the better to explore the banks of the St. Lawrence River.

I run ultra-long distances on urban trails, I spin and knit my own original designs, and I hold doggedly to the belief that our sense of connectedness and curiosity are our best assets.
