Hi, I’m Dustin.

My journey began on a farm, where I learned the value of hard work and the importance of understanding your environment. This foundation, combined with a lifelong passion for music, has shaped my perspective as a futurist, marketing technologist, and advocate for human autonomy in the digital age. I turn big ideas—like AI, data-driven innovation, and the value of our digital identities—into stories that inspire action and spark curiosity. As emerging technologies reshape our world, keeping humanity at the center of progress has never been more critical. I envision an Internet 3.0 where ethical, people-first solutions replace exploitative data practices.

Empowering individuals with absolute control over how their data fuels breakthroughs in healthcare, expands access to education, redefining consumer choice. I use storytelling to replace fear of change with understanding. By bridging innovation and empathy, we unlock data’s full potential, curing untreatable diseases, creating economic opportunities in underserved communities, and resulting in a more equitable, purpose-driven future for everyone.

Let’s work to build a better world—where technology serves humanity, not the opposite.
