Storytelling

The vehicle through which people understand experience

Featured story A Backyard BBQ that Became a Calling

The Van Hiller Rock and Roll Backyard BBQ started as a way to celebrate community and music in our own backyard, but through fate it became a personal cause, a platform, and a story to tell that was much bigger than I would ever imagine. 

More Storytelling

Strategy

The pursuit of meaningful outcomes.

Featured story Growing My Leadership Shadow as a Manager

Leaning into areas far outside my role scope helped me establish how much more I can offer than the tactical role for which I was hired.

More Strategy

Community

The mechanism through which people organize around shared purpose.

Featured story Connecting People Around The Beautiful Game

Every four years we embark on the beautiful game's international competition. I've designed a tracker for groups, teams, goals, and knockout rounds. As this is the single largest sporting event in the world, it seems appropriate to share it with anyone else who loves soccer.

A Product Manager's Approach to Explaining Type 1 Diabetes

Over the past few weeks, I've been building a Type 1 Diabetes microsite as a way to organize everything I've learned since my diagnosis. The goal wasn't to create another medical reference—it was to build a calm, plain-English guide that explains what Type 1 diabetes is, how it works, how it's treated, where research is heading, and how people can better support those living with it. It's still evolving, but I'm excited to continue growing it into a resource for newly diagnosed patients, families, and anyone curious to learn more.

The Underachiever - Part 1: Anticipation

Jooles Mueller (AKA 'The Underachiever') is a dot-com burnout and is tired of his blind commitment to productivity. He’s on a collision course with his heart, pushing him towards adventure, while his mind restrains him towards responsibility. But both are telling him to go to Paris. They just may not be one and the same destination.
