​Writing and curating
​exhibitions for museums

Telling true and compelling history is more important than ever. Without powerful stories that reveal the past, we can't learn from our mistakes or build on our successes. 

​In my exhibition writing and curation, I love to collaborate with researchers, designers and builders to develop historical narratives that are as informative as they are engaging. Whether it's for the largest cultural institution on the planet or your local museum, I bring creativity, clarity and emotion to the stories of our past.

Helping brands tell
​their stories to the world

To connect with customers and communities, brands need to tell their story. In a world with so much competition for attention, your "why" is as important as your product or service. 

I'm passionate about working with brands and non-profits to bring their stories to life, whether it's through a tagline, brand narrative, voice and tone strategy or brand positioning. I love collaborating with brands that are making our world a better place, and putting more good into the the marketplace.

FEATURED ESSAY

Creativity is Conflict
Why AI is no replacement for creative debate

Toxic debate in the workplace that includes personal attacks, insults, intimidation or disrespect have no place in any work environment. Yet, the skill of debating a creative idea on a wide range of merits is essential to doing things well.

Writing is compromise not dictation. A prompt is not a conversation. Creativity is the seed of progress in business and culture, and we need new ideas to shape the future. So, we need to invest in the type of work and workers that breed new things.

​In all the AI excitement, we have to resist the idea that creative work is just one more task to accomplish. It is in the debate and the conflict that the dynamic magic of creativity becomes possible.
