Why I Want Your Time.

After nearly 20 years of successfully writing and speaking on creativity and innovation with some of the world's most successful and influential companies, I was falsely accused of sexual assault in 2017. This nightmare not only shattered my career but also stifled my creative drive. After more than four years of relentless effort, I was swiftly acquitted in June 2022.

Out of the Blue delves into the agonizing experience of being wrongfully accused and brutally attacked in the news and on social media and the arduous and painful journey of rebuilding my life.

I want you and many others to understand the dangers of moral panics, how the news media engages in destructive bias in its reporting, and how state law enforcement and bureaucratic agencies overstep legal and even ethical boundaries in search of a win.

I never thought it would happen to me.
