"Your path can only be your own."
Michael Ventura's work is grounded in empathy. As Founder and CEO of strategy and design practice Sub Rosa, he helps companies and brands become more human. The Applied Empathy speaker series is one of many recent projects he's launched to explore empathy's role in the creative process. Michael's practice also incorporates the teachings of traditional and indigenous medicine. He sees about 15 patients a week and integrates what he's learned into every aspect of his life and work. His home base is a West Village compound that houses Sub Rosa, his wife Caroline's shop Calliope and their gallery, And&And.
