harness the power of language.
Bring curiosity and powerful listening to find your stories, learn what they mean & do, & what more they could!
There are many people wanting to work with you on storytelling, but they don’t bring a research and analytical approach. I combine sociolinguistics, improvisation, and ethnography to focus on what your stories DO. Language does things in social interaction - particularly stories, which often are hiding in plain sight. Therefore, my approach starts with story finding. Long before we even think about storytelling, we bring attention and curiosity to story listening.

Ultimately, adopting this story approach will set you on a path of story triggering, reminding you that stories are everywhere, just waiting to work for you.
