I'm a multi-disciplinary artist (writer, performer, visual artist) and do creativity development, helping people expand how they use creativity. In business, this translates to marketing (choosing the right name for your company; finding your best customers; writing material that speaks directly to those customers; adapting to changes in the market, new kinds of competition, etc.), negotiation (understanding the value of a given product/service you are buying or selling), and business trouble-shooting. Outside the business world, many people have creative projects they've been meaning to get to, and I help them "get off the dime." I've been teaching writing and working with writers on a variety of projects for over 20 years. Many years ago I created the "Write About Your Life" training, and still love helping people tell their stories. My own creative work has appeared in venues ranging from museums and galleries to stage performances, and has been published in magazines.
