About Us

The ethos of While on Earth stems from the Kurt Vonnegut quote:

“I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.”

I spent almost a decade in big tech trying to balance a creative life with the demands of “growth at all costs” culture. This, unsurprisingly, resulted in major burnout and a phobia of tech-speak and corporate jargon. Thankfully, I developed a toolkit of practices and philosophies that kept me sane and filled my “off” hours with meaning during those years. I’m building While on Earth to share these ideas with anyone struggling with the expectations and pace of "the norm". In times like these, little else feels as important as connecting art, music, education, events and makers with folks that want to slow down, get inspired, build meaningful practices in their lives, unlock their creativity and heal their inner artist. 

Fart Around. Stay Curious.
