IDMTR // About
I make things. I always have. Most of what I've built started with a question I couldn't stop thinking about, then turned into a product, a platform, a community, or a book.
Coworking is where most of those questions led me. In 2015, Pauline and I launched Coworkies, a job board for coworking and hospitality. Following Paul Graham's advice to stay close to your customers, we visited 700+ coworking spaces across 65+ cities to understand the people and places shaping how we work. That journey became a book, and the industry became our world: Hack Coworking (the first coworking hackathon), Hello Glocal (boutique publishing for spaces), and TwoFifty (coworking consulting).
Right now I'm running Coworking Tech Week, a conference focused on the technology shaping the industry, and building Journey Mapper, a visual tool for mapping customer experiences.
I studied at Hult International Business School and SUNY Oswego. A mix of management, sociology, marketing, history, psychology, and sculpture. That eclectic background is probably why I move comfortably between strategy, product, design, marketing, and code.
If you're working on something interesting, I'd love to hear about it.
