My background is in the music industry, and I was even on MySpace, trying to create connections with my music (yes, that long ago.)

I’ve been coaching nonverbal communication for leaders, and found a lot of work with people having video conference meetings. This has led to working more with video and small businesses, both in how they are coming across on video, and in how to empower themselves with as much know-how about the equipment for making video, and how to connect online with their video content.

It’s exciting to learn about the online world because it’s always growing, and putting that together with how we connect on a human level makes that even more interesting.

I recently worked with a startup who were pitching for $20k in funding, and it needed to be in a 3 minute video format. I helped them shape their story, their images and their content to connect emotionally through video (and I filmed it) which got them to the next round of in-person pitching.

With my background in dance, voice (teaching rockstars and at universities) songwriting (which helps you write for the ear rather than the eye) and nonverbals, I’m fascinated by how we can bring connections we would have in person into the digital world, and be our most authentic self.
