Yup, that happened. I’ve never been to one before but Dathan invited me to attend, so I figured why not? Plus, it was a funraiser for a good cause. How can one turn that down? So…I’m generally always down for anything…and…as a planner / strategist / ethnographer / curious person…I was intrigued. I love learning [...]

Hanging out at Goodwill
If you were ever curious about what I spend my Sunday afternoons doing… I usually end up doing fairly random things that probably no one else would enjoy doing…but I find some element of enjoyment, so I suppose that’s all that matters, right?

education, music + process
1 1/2 years ago in Dave’s curiosity class, my term curiosity project was to learn all that I could about education systems over the course of ten weeks.

storytelling of a T-Rex fraternity dissapointment
While in Seattle this past weekend, I found myself in FAO Schwartz. The salesman, I quickly learned, was a MASTER storyteller. Apparently, he’s also his family’s historian and maintains all the family records and stories because he’s “excellent with remembering names and dates.” He told me a handful, maybe in case I didn’t believe him.

I’d love to go back there at night or during the famous hot dog eating contest. SUCH A STRANGE PLACE! Here’s our first reaction to Coney Island: Lola Staar’s (abandoned) Dreamland Roller rink: [...]

hairballs, creativity and bedbury
After the branding America workshop a few weeks back, I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with a few fellow students, professors, and Scott Bedbury and Stu Redsun. At one point, we began discussing the Curiosity for Strategists class taught by Dave, which led me to discuss the term project – take something you are curious about, study [...]

The Hero’s Journey
In my Curiosity for Strategists class, we recently spend a class discussing the hero’s journey and famous heroes and their journeys that we’ve seen in Mythology. Taking it a step further, I began thinking of modern day heroes and their role is society. It’s interesting to note that although most of the heroes have been [...]
