REIMAGINING our work:
How does creativity change the game?
In this talk in Athens Greece, I shared a bit of my story—and raised questions about the impacts of creativity on healthcare.
What do we miss when we ‘stay in our lanes’?
Whether you're launching an innovative initiative,
reimagining workplace design or culture,
seeking creative study designs,
or needing a fresh take on persistent challenges…
…the intersection of creativity and behavioral science unlocks possibilities you haven’t considered before.

Project Uncaged™

ellery
I began my artistic career as the songwriter/vocalist/pianist for the band Ellery®. We’ve released several albums, with songs in film and TV (ABC, SHOWTIME, FOX, NETFLIX, etc). A partnership with producer and guitarist Justin Golden, our “romantish” lush-pop style was honed over years of touring.
I’ve been known to sing during keynotes. Music connects, and making it is a form of storytelling — of showing up fully present, and sharing a journey.
