Intent

I take pride in bringing people together and facilitating serendipity. I hunt for knowledge and new experiences. I am optimistic of the world changing possibilities that new technologies offer.

Mindshare.LA, an event that I cofounded in 2006, is a perfect intersection of these three passions. Each month, we bring together ~400 diverse people for a night of inspiration and interaction. The cornerstone of the evening is a curated program of short, equally diverse presentations. There is food, a stocked bar and interactive artwork from the great brains of Syyn Labs, an R+D group we founded that showcases projects which encourage social engagement and make people consider their relationship with technology, and each other.

I am a character that resides in balance of extremes. A designer with a penchant for circuitry. A social connector that often steals away for solitude. A bon vivant that morphs into a meditative self improver. The Tuxedo Travels is a manifestation of this synergy - my first mix of adventure and charity. I am as adept at public speaking as I am behind the scenes, where I can manage heavy amounts of logistics with a smile.

I aim to make this world a better place by helping people engage with themselves, others and the planet in a more intentional and mindful way.

 

 

Location


I am currently on the road until mid March, exploring Argentina and Chile while writing my first work of non-fiction that will take readers on my journey, both through South America and through some explorations of human behavior. You can stay up to date on my blog...

 

Projects

Mindshare

Mindshare.LA is my main project these days. It's a ongoing experiment in community building that is centered in downtown LA. If youre ever in town on a 3rd Thursday, join us for some enlightened debauchery!

 

Syyn Labs

Syyn Labs, LLC is a company that we spun out of the Mindshare.LA event. Not only does the group run other events but we also produce custom technologies that get people interacting with themselves and others in interesting new ways.

You can also follow us on Twitter for current interactive developments.

 

FolioHub

FolioHub is my constantly-in-development web startup idea ;) The goal of the website is to give artists a way to easily setup up their own branded site, on their own domain and to start selling their work.

I am looking for a development partner to help bring it from it's current state to a more slick Web 2.0 feel.
