I've spent my career inside experiential learning.
From leading international student expeditions across the Americas, to facilitating design sprints for Dell, Mars-Wrigley, and Northwest Mutual, to founding learning communities of my own — I've built, run, and studied experiential learning businesses from the inside.
I'm also the creator of Maps Worth Arguing With — an ongoing series mapping the business models, economics, and design of experiential learning businesses.
That combination — practitioner experience and analytical thinking — is what I bring to founders who are ready to get serious about what they're building.
