I'm deeply passionate about creativity and creative solution-finding! My first memory, probably within a year of being born, is of my grandmother, in Portugal, placing a newly born chick in my hands. The wonder and joy I experienced in that moment has stayed with me since and has lead me to explore creativity in its many facets. Recently, this passion to understand creativity has been focused through the lenses of strategy innovation, neuroscience, metaphysics and entrepreneurship. I'm exploring how these disciplines impact and elevate human ability and performance. In 2017, as a commitment to provide more value to clients, I joined my esteemed colleagues (Bob Johnston, Doug Bate, Danny Warshay, Teresa Amabile, Katy Foucar-Szocki) in the launch of a new venture - Strategy Innovation Group, LLC. The Strategy Innovation methodology is the center point of our collaborative work and of Bob and Doug's book, The Power of Strategy Innovation.

I can now help clients apply their creativity to the practice of Strategy Innovation, engaging them in the discovery and exploration of new growth opportunities for themselves and their projects. Visionality helped a bridge player become a world champion, a writer publish his first book, and a musician record and produce his first solo CD. Visionality is a reminder that, "the oak sleeps in the acorn...dreams, are the seedlings of realities." ~ James Allen
