The man who started it all.

Quick fact: Walt Disney is the only person that has a window facing into the park… That way he can look over all that he created!

My new book is available for pre-order!

11/07/2025

Incredibly excited to announce that my book, “Creative Cross-Pollination: A Former Imagineer’s Take on the Innovation Process” is now available for pre-order!

It’s a really practical, fun, and easy read. CCP discusses how humans are pre-wired to take two things that have nothing to do with each other, put them together, and solve challenges! It’s filled with stories, examples, techniques, and much more.

No matter your field or your passion you will definitely find relevance in this book! It’s also perfect for teachers, instructors, or professors looking for a great book on creative thinking that they can adopt into their courses and/or classrooms.

Some plaques I wrote when it was still Disney-MGM Studios!

Who remembers these plaques at the Studios which I wrote the copy for? Only one of them is still there… Can you name it?

How many of you have seen these beautiful inlays in the Grand Floridian’s marble floors? Taking it to the next step, I’m sure probably noticed Pluto in the center of the design… But did you ever notice the other characters hidden within? And a major bonus if you’ve ever seen the hidden and Mickey within the wallpaper pattern. 🫨 (For that last one, you pretty much have to know it’s there and where to look…)

There’s also a couple beautiful in these by both elevators on the second floor, and even more hidden Mickey’s and the marble throughout the lobby areas. Next time you’re there see if you can spot them all!
