Amy has been working in the creative industry for two decades as an Internationally awarded executive producer (including 7 Cannes Lions). She began her career in the early days of digital working in interactive media at CNN.com and Alliance Atlantis’ U8TV. She moved into advertising working for agencies like TAXI and Grip on brands like Molson, MINI, WestJet, Amp’d Mobile, Nike, Honda and Labatt. in 2009 she founded the creative consultancy and collective Lunch. Amy believes that making things should be as easy as ordering lunch. She brought to market a collective of art driven and established creators from Jason Zada to Nathan Jurevicius and Alex McLeod and continues to collaborate with many of the founding members of the original roster.
She had been making amazing things with incredible people and great clients from Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon to Red Bull and and working with creators like Pee-wee Herman. Things should have been perfect, but the traumas of her life were catching up. Something just didn’t feel right. Awards weren’t helping, patterns were emerging and she felt out of steam. She had lost her spark.
Amy crossed paths with the man who would become her teacher, Daniel Leonard of The Medicine Circle and she began her own healing journey. She was eventually called to train and begin her own practice to work with other survivors, in addition to her creative work at Lunch. In finally being able to name her trauma and seek justice, she crossed beams and brought her Spiritual practice and her creative practice together. She extended an invitation for others to remember in her heartbreaking and often hilarious book What We’ve Forgotten.
Amy’s specialty is not only bringing ideas to life, but bringing the spark of life back into people – whether in ceremony or creative practice. She looks forward to connecting with you.
