About Brian

I've been leading teams for over 15 years to create innovative and effective training solutions, customer education and communication projects. I also roll-up my sleeves and do the work.

I’m comfortable producing videos & podcasts, developing learning and heading up a group to create amazing solutions. Those solutions help businesses achieve their objectives and I can run the analytics that show the business impacts.

I've built successful training teams at large and small companies. Teams that are highly productive and creative, with low turnover and high job satisfaction. I pride myself in knowing what it takes to lead.

Outside Work

Deep satisfaction comes from being a dad and husband and spending time with my family. I measure success on the quality of my interactions with them.

When I need to recharge, I spread time between creating videos for YouTube, photography, podcasting, programming apps, the outdoors (cycling, running, climbing, camping, hiking - almost anything outside) and reading. I’m also a gadget guy – I enjoy trying out new and interesting technology.

Philosophy

It’s all about the user/learner. Training and communications is about understanding what the user needs, the project and learning objectives and building something that meet those needs.

What excites me is the opportunity to help others understand something and get through change – difficult or otherwise.

Where design, media, technology and business intersect: Today’s business world is rapidly evolving and requires flexibility and solid team work. I love to find ways to create, test and use training and technology to solve business needs.
