Whether it's a conference or small intimate meeting I create GIANT charts that help people feel connected, valued and heard. I have recorded hundreds of talks and conversations all over the world for diverse clients from the tech community, mental health, pharmacy, dentistry and so much more. One of the biggest things that made me fall in love with this work is the amazing opportunity for increased memory retention of information. If you have ever left a meeting thinking, "uh, what did they say again?" or attend a conference where you listened to 30 speakers and now can't remember anything any of them said? Graphic recording is a the perfect remedy. In addition, I have a vision to get the skills of 'visual note taking' into the hands of every student across Canada (to start) and then the world!
