all things learning,
brand & culture.

Learning, brand & culture may seem separate, but they’re deeply connected:
Learning shapes how we grow. Brand shapes how we show up. Culture shapes how we work together.
This intersection is my sweet spot: where teams find clarity, people feel belonging, and businesses build something meaningful.

How To Make A Leader (Podcast Interview)

Most L&D teams are building programs — yet the best ones are also building philosophies.

A brand's Learning Philosophy is a North Star — a shared belief system about how people grow — and it repositions your L&D team from content creators to Cultural Amplifiers. 🚀

Speaking @ Go Tech World 2025, Bucharest

🙋 To CEOs, CHROs & CPOs in my network:
"Is your L&D function a culture amplifier — or have you relegated it merely to content creation + workshop facilitation?"

I'm speaking at GoTech Wo rld 2025 in Bucharest on November 11th about this exact distinction.

"𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲, 𝗔𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱: 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝘁 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗕𝗲"
In an era where AI is changing how we learn, a clear cultural North Star can keep growth aligned + on-brand.

“Can Culture Save L&D?” (podcast)

Really enjoyed this conversation w/ Adam Lacey on "The Assembly" by Assemble You.

We dug into some of my favorite topics + a few of my foundational POVs on L&D:

(1) Learning Culture as an extension of Brand Culture
(2) Why every company needs a Learning Philosophy
(3) How L&D can evolve from a traditional support function into Culture Amplifiers 🚀

From Culture to Competitive Advantage: The Case for a Learning Philosophy.

“When L&D teams can show how their approach shapes business culture — by defining how learning becomes a strategic edge — then suddenly, you're not just running programs. You're shaping the future.”
