Tell us a bit about yourself
I love helping people see the other, less considered angle. I’ve always enjoyed finding the exception to the rule. This is probably because I believe life is about embracing the many shades of gray. I’m analytical, gregarious, and daring, at times. I also love a great joke! On the personal front, I’m married to an amazing women. We have two wonderful children. They make more life more meaningful. Last, I’m active. I love skiing, biking, running, and anything revolving around the outdoors and exercise. I also love writing. It’s cathartic and challenging.
What is a fun fact about yourself that would surprise many people?
I wrote a book called Couch Yoga, a tongue and cheek guide on doing yoga on the couch. Plus, I write a blog called Career Adventurer, a channel to help people see the possibilities in their careers. I love writing these things! Writing helps me both personally and professionally.
What drew you to The Garage Group?
I love helping companies remain relevant. I love helping companies see and build the meaningful strategy and innovation plans they need to excel in the market. Most importantly, I enjoy connecting with people who want to find the courage to tap into their inner strength to take meaningful action. I know how hard it is for leaders to find and build winning growth strategies. I’ve been there. I want to help them. That includes helping TGG continue to find the meaningful growth strategies it needs to remain relevant.
What is your superpower?
I am an enthusiastic ideator! I can create a new idea seemingly out of thin air. I see random connections and love connecting dots. I love iterating on the idea and making it bigger, bolder. Plus, I love selling it. Ideation sessions are my jam. Writing persuasive concepts is energizing!
Tell us about a time you had to be courageous.
Everytime I release something new to the world. Whether I’m sharing a new article on my blog, posting something on LinkedIn for TGG, or launching a new product, I worry. It’s tough to put yourself out there. But, fear doesn’t stop me. Each instance is an opportunity to tell myself, “I’m good enough. I’m smart enough. And, People like me,” as Stuart Smalley, the famed Saturday Night Character once said.
