About
🫶 Passionate about communication and collaboration technology. Tech enthusiast, speaker, and writer. Productivity junkie.
🌎 Experience: For almost 3 decades I've helped guide customers, clients, and communities on the technological and cultural aspects of communication, coordination, and collaboration.
💪🏻 Expertise: I've worked in Product Marketing, Product Management, evangelism, and industry research on everything from email to augmented reality and virtual worlds. I am always curious, always learning, and always sharing.
🔎 Vision: I believe we've barely scratched the surface of how people should work. For example, improving context is the most important factor in reducing information overload and increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of the way people work. Today, we have very little context tying different systems together.
🎙️ Speaker & Thought Leader | Sharing insights on the future of work and maximizing productivity in the modern workplace. Helping organizations unlock their full potential through effective collaboration strategies and innovative technology solutions. Catch me at conferences, webinars, and podcasts. 🎤
👨👩👧👦 _By far my greatest achievement is my family
🎁 Giving back: I would not be where I am today if not for the generosity of several amazing people. That's why being a mentor is so important to me at this stage of my career. It's extremely rewarding to be able to help share experiences and open doors for others.
🌐 Connect with me to discuss all things collaboration, technology, and the evolving nature of work. Let's shape the future together! 🚀 #FutureOfWork

How can you maintain professionalism when communicating remotely?
Authenticity should be embraced not shunned. The shift to work from anywhere has changed the way many people work. For example, for those that work at home it is not uncommon for children or pets to randomly appear during webconferences, and that's ok! While of course you want to minimize distributions, if they do occur, take it in stride. Be supportive. Be human.

You have to give a presentation but your audience is disengaged. How can you make them care?
One of the challenges that even the best presenters face, is that most of today's online presentation tools have a fundamental design flaw... they hide the presenter in favour of the content. We've all been there. An online meeting/webinar starts. Everyone is having a great time connecting, but then when the presenter hits share, they disappear and the screen is replaced with their slides. In some cases the presenter becomes a little circle or cutout of themselves, but the full immersive nature of eye-contact, facial gestures, and body language is lost. That's why we designed Airglass to seamlessly mix presenters and content together, giving the audience an unforgettable experience that allows them to learn and retain the information.

Dear Apple. It would be really nice if we could sort videos by size, making it easy to remove videos that are taking up the most space. Thank you.
