It was great to see you at Oklahoma Arts Council’s Arts & Health Summit!

I’ve created a custom workbook just for attendees. Grab it to access the frameworks I shared, dig into great reflection prompts, and in general think bigger about your work. (Click the image to download)

⬇️ And: see below for a few ways work with me… I’d love to connect!

Ways to

Work with Me:

BOOK a Keynote or Workshop

My virtual and in-person talks have helped audiences link arts & health and/or get creative about who they are, what they do, and where they’ll go next. [ SXSW, Google, US Conf. of Mayors, POLITICO, Mayo Clinic, etc. ]
Attendees have described the presentations as “riveting,” “compelling,” “downright beautiful.”

get Consulting, Courses, or 1:1 coaching

I consult and advise leaders across the globe — leveraging the science of creativity help them question assumptions, reimagine their work, develop programs and research… and move bold ideas into practical action.

From strategic advisory and ideation roles to research designs to communications, I’m glad to help clients take their best next steps.

“How We Human” is my signature training in mental health & trauma-informed practice, designed specifically for creative professionals.
This virtual experience is rooted in research, inspired by my own experience with depression and burnout, and informed by years of practice with artists and arts orgs.

ABOUT…

As a behavioral scientist, I study what makes people tick, what gets them stuck, and what drives real change.

As an artist, I know that creativity isn't just about making things. It’s about seeing possibilities that others miss.

Asboth, I help people re-see their work and its potential… so they can grow their impact and ignite change.
