In 2018, I co-founded a nonprofit called The Good Listening Project. It uses specially trained Listener Poets to support nursing resilience, physician wellbeing, and patient safety.

​

I got my start in listening as a design student at Cornell University. I built my listening skills as a journalist, honed my listening as an improv theater performer, cultivated trust as a listener doing design research, and tested my mettle as a listening street artist under the Free Custom Poetry banner.

 

A friend made this short documentary about my early days.
