A bit about Geoff:
Geoff was born with an unquenchable curiosity for understanding the things around him. Driven to use his curiosity to solve wicked problems, he combined a BS in Chemical Engineering from Madison, WI with a MS in Creativity from Buffalo, NY.
He unleashed that unique combination at General Mills and Birds Eye Foods by leading teams and developing new consumer centric food and packaging innovations. Inspired by changing the business to consumer relationship to a human to human one,
Geoff has focused his last 5 years speaking about empathy based innovation and consulting with Fortune 500 firms like J&J, McDonalds, The Hartford, Kellogg, Pfizer, and P&G. He is currently the Director of Innovation at Kaleidoscope.
He is most proud of his 6 month partnership with Design Impact to teach Design Thinking to 250 MBA Students in Mumbai, India and designing a year long effort that led to the P&G Always Like A Girl campaign.
If you have the chance to meet Geoff, his wife, or one of his 3 adorable daughters, you will probably notice yourself smiling (he says it because of mirror neurons, we say it’s because of their character).
