I am constantly developing new projects to keep the creative juices flowing. The most recent endeavor, Seven Years Winter, involves building a complete snowboarding community centered around real ride reports. The below list highlights some of my past projects in various mediums.



Social


In 2009, I was selected for Ford's FiestaMovement, a progressive social media marketing program that brought together 100 of the most influential voices on the web.

"While Ford has had several initiatives, by far their most ambitious one has been the Ford Fiesta Movement, a grassroots social media campaign to promote the new Fiesta model by placing Fiestas in the hands of 100 social “agents” and having them promote Ford’s new vehicle through Twitter, blogs, video, and events, all without spending a dollar on traditional media."

The Upside in the Downturn: Realigning the Wind Industry


Renewable Energy World - March/April 2009

"After growing at a breakneck pace the industry was expected to install 18 GW in 2008. By significantly reducing demand and intensifying competition, today’s global economic slowdown should encourage a shakeout of companies, management teams, and business practices in the wind business. To adapt to the more competitive and lower-cost economic environment wind turbine companies will have to consolidate their ownership and development models. New market economics will drive industry transformation to a lower cost structure, with fewer players, stronger supply chains, and a greater focus on reliability. Higher efficiency and better reliability are especially critical for making the wind generation cost competitive and credible with traditional forms of power generation."

Mongol Rally 2006

In 2006, I drove a 1 liter Ford Fiesta from London to Mongolia with a team of friends. Along the way, we nearly ended up in a Siberian prison, had a team member smuggled off the Russian border, and had the time of our lives. The entire trip was documented on our blog in nearly real time. Here is an excerpt from one of the posts I made.

"And then while traveling at 60 MPH, the wheel fell off of our trip literally. The back end dropped and the car was engulfed in a flurry of sparks. I fought the strong pull that comes from metal to tarmac contact, keeping the car on the road and out of the surrounding marsh. Finally the car came to a rest on the side of the road while I tried to flash down the Seat. I stepped out of the car shaken and sure the Fiesta's rally days were through. The left rear tire had pulled off with the hub and was now resting on the brake drum and the strut support. We started searching for the tire. It was around 40 F and I was in flip flops. We fianlly decided to get some sleep and continue the search in the morning. I fell asleep in my hobbled Fiesta, knowing the prospects were slim."

Sven Curth - Jesus Loves Tractors

I worked with my good friend Sven Curth to create a video for his latest single, "Jesus Loves Tractors". The video was shot over the course of 24 hours across two states and 6 farms.
