Learn. Build. Share.
I speak, write, podcast, and make cool videos - all about learning
Workshops // Speaking
Give me a couple of hours and I'll give you a one of the best workshop experiences you can find. No fluff. Actionable. Backed by research.
Podcast
Short episodes where we hear directly from the experts. We pick one topic to jump into, find the leading researcher, and show you how to apply their work to your life.
Videos
Our videos work to unpack principles of learning in an engaging, easy to understand format. I think you'll love the one about Jungle Tigers :)
Articles
These are usually short nuggets that can help you become a better learner. When I'm feeling feisty I'll draw up some stick figures to help tell the story.

EXPERIENCE
BA Sociology Duke University 2010
I travel the country speaking, learning, reading, and writing for The Learner Lab
THE LEARNER LAB (formerly Train Ugly)
Founder (2013-Present)
50% of my time is spent writing and producing content for The Learner Lab
The other 50% is spent traveling and doing workshops with groups from all over the world. I've worked with Fortune 500 companies, MLB teams, Olympic teams, with hundreds of schools, and even in a few prisons.
The other 50% is spent learning. I seek out the scientists and thought leaders in the world of development, consume their research and discoveries, connect the dots, and shares it with anyone that will listen.

MITCHELL GROUP

Three best friends + a celebrity chef = the wildest two years of my life. We learned to be scrappy, what it meant to be lean, how to create something out of nothing, how to hustle and, most importantly, how to make kick ass sushi!
