In college, I had an insight that changed me – the quality of our lives is bounded by our ability to communicate.  So much is dependent on how well we communicate, and yet so little attention is given to this learnable skill.  I graduated with a degree in interpersonal communication that combined nicely with my fascination for technology leading to a career as a technical story-teller, author, blogger, and speaker for companies like Microsoft, Adobe, and others.

But I wanted to go much deeper in understanding human interactions, so sought out the best I could find. I’ve had the good fortune to study Hakomi somatic psychotherapy with the founder –   Ron Kurtz,  Matrix Leadership group dynamics with the founder –  Amina Knowlan,  and meditation with the late Audle Allison.   I taught meditation for several years and founded the Quest Institute in Dallas.  Other influences include martial arts, contact improvisation, and training with Gabrielle Roth

The result is a transformation in my personal experience that is profoundly satisfying. You can turn ordinary conversations into extraordinary experiences. I’m available for coaching, speaking engagements. In 2022, look for a book called The Language of Mindfulness and TedX talk.
