The best of the best from adventures around California (and one Virginia trip) over the last few years. I took a break from writing on here to focus on being outside, not worrying about having to come up with something to write about, but just enjoying my time in the outdoors.

Rachel and I explored north, south, and east of CA. We took the opportunity during lockdown and the months after to get away from being virtual.

Here are random photos of some of the trips we did.

As a Design Strategist and Creative Facilitator, I focus on social innovation, human-centered design, and purpose-driven initiatives that create positive change in the world. I love finding ways for organizations to make a huge impact in unexpected places. Working with others who are working towards creating positive change, I use design as my tool to help them do this in a better way. In a playful workshop environment, I help Fortune 500 companies to startups, non-profits to universities, come up with fun, achievable, and innovative solutions to challenges. My prefer method is making. With a background in both web and graphic design, I bring ideas to life so others can see what’s possible.
