I’m a 2x founder, former Invisible Children roadie turned creative technologist, mentor, and keynote speaker who’s spent the last decade exploring how tech, storytelling, and emotional wellness shape how we evolve as humans.
I co-founded one of the first digital schools for life (think Esalen meets early-2010s Vice), built an LMS before Teachable was a thing, created courses with bestselling authors and thought leaders, and developed award-winning technology and methodology around marketing chatbots. Oh and experienced virality working on KONY2012.
Everything I’ve built has been rooted in lean startup principles, intuition, and learned experience. My long-time collaborator, Mia Pokriefka, and I have been building together for 14 years — launching ideas that didn’t have a blueprint and figuring it out as we went.
I now advise the next wave of creatives, founders, and voices going from 0 to 1. My sweet spot is turning bold ideas into lean MVPs and guiding them toward repeatable revenue.
I also co-host MADWOMEN, a podcast where we talk to some of the most brilliant, unconventional minds in marketing, creativity, and business. The ones who trust their gut, take risks, and cut through the noise.
