About Me.
With a career spanning over 26 years in the fields of technical innovation and Design Thinking, I've had the privilege to collaborate with individuals, small enterprises, and industry titans, inspiring creative and transformative solutions in diverse areas - from print media to digital apps, and from government initiatives to grassroots campaigns.
While my practical experiences have been enriching, my academic pursuits have not taken a back seat. I have earned certifications from esteemed institutions like IDEOU, The Design Thinkers Academy, and Harvard University. My professional approach is greatly shaped by renowned thought leaders like Clay Christensen, John Cutler, and Jared Spool. Their philosophies have not only contributed to my solid foundation in Design Thinking but also to the development of my unique methods.
Now, my journey brings me here, eager to share the accumulated wisdom and experience, with a hope to ignite your passion. I aim to empower you to experience the thrill and fulfillment that comes with making a difference, one initiative at a time. Join me as we embark on this journey of learning and transforming the world together one initiative at a time.

Why Graffiti?
While I staunchly disapprove of the unauthorized defacement of property, I am inspired by the innovative spirit of graffiti art when performed responsibly and with permission. As such, I feature graffiti on our site to symbolize our commitment to bold, unconventional problem-solving that respects boundaries and community values.
