There is something medicinal about live music. And especially when it is played with such skill and joy. The icing on the cake was that Katy Hill, the 16-year-old-daughter of band members Brian and Jennifer Hill, who has received the Florida Fiddler’s Association’s Gold Medal in the 13-18-year-old category at the Florida Folk Festival in White Springs, Florida, for two years in a row now, was performing with them that night.

An optimist in the age of “great acceleration,” I am an educator, innovator, author, technologist, futurist, and musician. I believe in nurturing the best aspects of humanity - love, empathy, passion, curiosity and creativity. Since 1996, it has been my pleasure and privileged to teach tens of thousands of students at FSU in courses focusing on technology and design. I have authored several textbooks and designed an online learning framework for online teaching and learning to better meet the needs of GenZ. I am the Founder and Director of the Innovation Hub at Florida State University where I teach Design Thinking and connect students with opportunities for innovation.
