Muffinteer, Podcaster and Storyteller.
Hi! I’m the Field Trip Captain for CMATL. I enjoy creating content and building community. I am the Founder of Side Project Studios, a coaching and consulting firm championing ideas into action. I fell in love with side projects over a decade ago and shared why at TEDxEmory in 2019. My projects have been featured in Forbes, Inside Edition, Huffington Post and The Atlanta Journal Constitution. I’ve taught classes at The Brooklyn Brainery, produced and performed in a comedy show at the Peopleâs Improv Theater in New York City and built community for the Communications Network. Currently, I’m building Tradition Kitchens to transform kitchens into classrooms, Peach and Prosperity to produce a podcast with stories of Georgia and National Muffin Day to foster a philanthropic food holiday helping people experiencing homelessness.
Sometimes seeing the stars align comes from thoughtful collaboration and community building. And Constellations has done just that in their stellarly designed workspace in historic Sweet Auburn. Branding a space is a unique challenge, especially one where historic, new inspirations and civic innovation collide.
Join founder Gene Kansas for an exclusive behind-the-scenes on how Constellations came to light. This workshop style conversation will engage us how a space can be reborn instead of end and introduce us to the present with the community that it’s given birth to in Atlanta.
This is a more traditional format where participants absorb information through presentations and talks.
This FieldTrip will not be recorded.

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Wear your beginnerâs hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!Â
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings communityâjust like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgroundsâa lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
Weâre all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try âYes! AndâŠâ in conversation.
Itâs 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
