From Homicide Investigator to Wonderseeker
I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by a world that cares more about clicks than connection.
I’ve been a museum exhibition designer, an opera singer, a business founder with clients on every continent, and a homicide investigator working with death row inmates. Through it all, I’ve learned that wonder is the key to living and leading with purpose.
Now, as the author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller The Power of Wonder, a global keynote speaker, entrepreneur, and researcher, I help individuals and organizations rediscover the magic that fuels innovation, empathy, and inspired leadership.
