Being as present as I can; raising two boys in Oaxaca, Mexico and writing a book that I started in 1995, the year after leaving traditional reality.
I was born in Omaha and now live in Oaxaca. In between I've lived and worked in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco. I'm interested in social capital, collective intelligence, art & technology, pattern recognition, spatial intelligence and mapping. It is culture arising within social groups and networks that shapes people's individual worldviews and behavior. Thus my work merges business, art, entertainment, media and design worlds.
