Build Your Visual Skills!
Visual thinking and doodling are keys that can unlock our ability to connect with ourselves and others. When we draw, we improve our powers of observation, listening, thinking, and communication….powers that are crucial for designers, strategists, and humans of all kinds! Unfortunately, many of us stopped drawing as children and hold a lot of fear around starting again.
I’m on a mission to reacquaint people with their childhood self who wasn’t afraid to draw. I have taught hundreds of non-designers how to use and apply these skills in their every day work. Read below to learn more about how!

Workshops (in person and virtual)
My custom workshops are highly interactive, visual, and fun! We can explore one or several of my teaching threads, which include similar modules but are focused on different themes. I wrote in-depth about one of my favorite educational programs here if you’d like to see how they come together.

Online Courses
I have created three visual thinking courses and published them Skillshare to share the benefits of drawing your ideas.
Join over 40,000 other students in my FREE 60-min. class demystifying how drawing can help you communicate ideas clearer, faster, and stronger. We draw everyday data into friendly stories and charts, you'll learn how a few simple moves can help you organize your ideas, extend your brainstorming, and communicate complex concepts simply (and effectively) to audiences of every size.
In this one-hour class, I demonstrate techniques for creatively and visually summarizing content in a way that helps you process and retain the information. If you have been in a classroom, on a conference call, or watched a TED talk, but you can’t seem to remember the key points, visual note taking (also known as sketchnoting) can open up your mind in new and exciting ways. Give it a shot!
Re-think the résumé! Whether you are actually seeking a new job, or just need a better way to explain to your mom what it is you do for a living, this class will help you come up with fun, interesting, and impactful charts and visuals that communicate your professional or personal journey. I promise you will learn a lot about yourself, and you don't have to actually share it with anyone.
Paper Store Tutorials
My absolute favorite iPad drawing app, Paper by WeTransfer, asked me to create custom tutorials that you can download within the app for $1.99. Paper is currently only available as an iOS App, available for download on iPad or iPhone. Once you’ve downloaded the app, tap to Journal Store Icon on the top left screen. I’ve included some sample pages to give you a hint of what’s included below. You can read about the paper store and what it’s all about here!
