Previous Disruption Projects
Encouraging Adventurous Education
My book, The New Global Student (Crown/Random House, 2009) is the
go-to guide for stressed-out students and frustrated families seeking exhilarating and affordable
alternatives to the traditional K12+4 track. As the founder and lead consultant at Bold School Group, I worked with
educators, parents, students, and others to develop individualized learning adventures.

Boosting Attention & Mindfulness
Back in 2001 (long before apps), I applied the concept of gamification to mindfulness training.
My playful, eyes-wide-open approach to paying attention
captured the imagination of people of all ages in over 100 countries,
