In addition to leading a broad range of client engagements and events, Geoff particularly enjoys coaching professionals in the art and practice of giving great talks and presentations.

Geoff had just graduated from Northwestern with a M.A. in the once-vanishingly obscure discipline of performance studies when a lucky temp job introduced him to designing and facilitating collaborative work. In the twenty five years since, he has never looked back. Happily, both front-of-the-room facilitation and presentation coaching let him keep one toe in the world of performance. Over his years with CN, Geoff’s diverse client list has included Fidelity, MassMutual, TIAA, Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, Facebook, Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation, Vector Institute, Johnson & Johnson, and Velocity Clinical Research.

When he’s not working, Geoff may be found taking on DIY projects that require him to buy and learn how to use new tools, watching British crime procedurals with his wife, or playing “old guy” ultimate frisbee.
