Bio

📍LA / NYC / EU

🌍 Here to help build a better world and have fun along the way.

❤️ Human-centric innovator, founder, artist, and advisor.

🚀 20+ years co-creating and growing impact.

🎉 All I know is that I don’t know anything.

🤗 No expert. 💡 Yes curious. 🏆 The dumbest person in the room can be the smartest — how the courage to ask the stupid questions because they often surface the smartest ideas/answers/opportunities.

📉 Before the big achievements came, I failed personally and professionally more times than I can count. Relationships — ended. Startups — crashed. Jobs — fired from. Moneys — lost the farm. Ate 🧁 and 🍣 purchased w/Bitcoin in 2013 hahaha the most expensive dinner and desert in history. 🤣 Sooo many fails 🤦‍♂️ moments came before any of my achievements. And I’ve had more fails than not. Grateful for all of the fails because they humbled me, gave priceless lessons, and made me a better person. Point is — profile achievement highlights are great AND sometimes they don’t tell the whole picture. To talk authentically about my is important to me because beyond helping remind me that my successes are unique and hard-won, they can be immensely helpful someone who is just getting started, to know the road ahead almost certainly will have rough spots — and it can be life-saving for someone who is in the midst of a big-painful-disorienting-failure when that moment might feel like the end — when it’s not. When, in fact, that moment, that problem/obstacle, that seemingly-end moment has the power to be a new beginning, a bottom to go up from — if one chooses to make it so. ONWARD AND UPWARD. 📈
