I found the next mission worth changing for.

For the last 20 years, I've built experiences, partnerships, and narratives in environments where the work mattered deeply to the people it served — from Vans Warped Tour and My Chemical Romance to Make-A-Wish and the USO.

Different industries. Same standard: the mission matters, trust matters, and people can feel the difference when the work is done with conviction.

I'm making a deliberate move toward frontier technology because I believe the companies shaping the future of energy, infrastructure, and human progress will define the next generation of mission-driven work. What Oklo is building — reliable, scalable clean energy designed for the realities of the future — is exactly the kind of mission I want to help bring into the world.

My background may be unconventional for this space, but the work itself is familiar. I've spent two decades translating complex ideas into experiences people connect with, building partnerships that create long-term value, and creating narratives that move audiences from awareness to belief.

I'm not interested in this company from a distance. I'm already invested in Oklo as a shareholder because I believe in where the company is headed.
