I design learning systems, editorial frameworks, and narrative experiences that help people make sense of a complex media world.
I work at the intersection of higher education, journalism, and experiential storytelling—helping students, organizations, and communities learn through story, structure, and presence.

My Throughline
Everything I do is shaped by three identities:
Artist
I think in story, rhythm, and structure. My roots are in magazines, editorial design, broadcast journalism, and storytelling—work that values clarity, craft, and meaning.
Educator
I’m a teaching professor and education researcher with an EdD in Curriculum & Instruction. My work focuses on flipped classrooms, teaching presence, experiential learning, and helping students navigate today’s media landscape with confidence and care.
Adventurer
I learn by moving through the world—classrooms, studios, trails, communities, and systems. Curiosity, exploration, and lived experience shape how I teach, design, and collaborate.
These identities aren’t separate roles.
They’re lenses I bring to the same work.
What I Build
My practice lives at the intersection of:
Education
Curriculum design, teaching presence, media literacy, flipped learning, and student-centered pedagogy.
Editorial
Magazine craft, brand journalism, narrative strategy, long-form storytelling, and content systems grounded in reporting and ethics.
Experience
Learning environments, media ecosystems, experiential courses, production workflows, and story-driven journeys that invite participation.
This is where teaching, storytelling, and systems meet.
How I Work
My approach is grounded in a practical, human-centered operating system:
- The Great Game of Business (GGOB) — transparency, shared understanding, and ownership
- Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) — clarity, traction, and execution
- Fluid Pedagogy — my dissertation-based framework for adaptive, presence-driven teaching and design
Together, these shape how I teach, consult, collaborate, and create.

A Note on Purpose
Whether I’m working with students, colleagues, or collaborators, my goal is the same:
To help people understand what they’re seeing, make sense of complex systems, and create stories and experiences that matter.
Let’s connect.
If you’re here to learn, collaborate, or explore a project, I’m glad you found your way here.
