    Principal / Dscribe

    Dscribe is a company that provides visual and narrative documentation for your event enabling holistic understanding and a physical record of information.

    Recording - I capture information in a highly interactive and dynamic graphic format on large whiteboards, paper or foam core to create a visual artifact in the room to focus participants attention and create a record of their event.
    Facilitation - I work with small teams to help them visualize their thoughts in a graphic capacity, clarify their thoughts and ideas and communicate effectively.
    Documentation - I have worked with several different teams to create and manage large documents such as bid books, RFI's and proposals.
    Website documentation - I build real time websites during meetings to house all the documentation, photos and presentations during the event to capture the information that was covered.
