Reviving this image: the celestial influences that previous workshop participants imagined at the points of the Futures Triangle. The sun pushes for change from the present. The moon pulls us into the future. The gas giant Jupiter carries weights of the past.
Do you consider yourself a scientist, artist, radical, or mystic? You may be a good co-creator in my graduate research study! I am searching for locals in Sault Ste. Marie to attend participatory workshops where we will co-create Canada's social fabric. forms.cloud.microsoft/r/T0aCpQbXVz
This Monday, June 1 I am delivering a free lecture about designing survey questions. By the end of the session you will be able to differentiate between types of survey scales, critique survey questions, and develop one survey question to use in your own work. Register now! Don’t leave me hanging!
I'm back at the Neighbourly Market in #Toronto's #KensingtonMarket. I am selling the crochet toys, accessories, and other household items that I make by my own hands. @handmadebydnpa on instagram
I am hosting a learning session to go over my experience with my #personalcurriculum and share the guide with attendees. This was a practice in learning how to notice and anticipate change. Please join me! www.eventbrite.ca/e/1989928867...
I am using #Substack as my website until I can move to my own domain. I am still working on my main streams of business: I write about my experiences as a professional qualitative researcher, policy analyst, futurist, and systems designer. #mgmtconsulting #r&d #design
Not only do I create learning design and development resources, I also crochet. As a researcher, I crochet bookmarks to hide in library books and sell. Here they are at a recent #Toronto Sunday Market at #TheParkdaleHall! I'm looking at you #booksky 📚💙
Happy Mother's Day Weekend! 💐 I have always shared creativity and artistic talent with my family members. This weekend my mom will get to see my selling my crochet for the first time!!

News to me: Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier approved Order-in-Council PC 1911-1324, 12 August 1911 aiming to exclude Black people (along with their stories, cultures, and identities) from the Canadian project. Evidence of a legacy of exclusionary, racist immigration policy.
Describing your work is harder than doing your work. I wrote a learning reflection on how a @futurpreneur.bsky.social business workshop series forced me to articulate what I actually do — and why that kind of clarity matters for people doing complex, relational work.
January often comes with pressure to decide, commit, optimize. My work attempts to stay oriented to the future without rushing resolution. #PersonalCurriculum #75soft
