  • CREATE Daily April 6 and 7
    Apr 7 2026

    I am a traveler. I often have a journal, a guitar on my back an overnight bag and a laptop. Short, long and medium trips experienced through the journey learning and serving the communities that I visit. One of the areas of CREATE Daily is concentrating and offering the benefits of travel and transportation options at home, through our work and in community. One of my initiatives is to build community chapters for the Leadon Family Foundation (and University) and offering benefits and opportunities for travel and entrepreneurship to members. Traveling is in my blood. As a writer, and a singer-guitarist and songwriter, I have conqured creative blocks by hitting the road. I write on trains, planes and in hotel rooms and lobbys. I love the customs, the rhythm and the vibes of a city, town and Main Street or in a rural setting.
