About the speaker
Steven White, aka Seven, is an Author, Creative, Musician, Entrepreneur, and a dabbler in standup comedy. For over 15 years, he has been helping organizations and individuals unlock their creative potential. He’s worked with well-known companies and organizations such as Allstate, LUMA Institute, USSOCOM (United States Special Operations Command), and started several technology startups. He holds a Masters in Design Methods from the IIT Institute of Design in Chicago, one of the top design thinking graduate programs in the world.
Through his work as a Creativity instructor with USSOCOM, Steven has advised and trained over 1,000 elite members of the US military and international special forces - teams of Navy SEALs, Rangers, Green Berets, etc. - a rich mix of intelligence operatives, soldiers, pilots, medics.
In the years before the world changed in 2020, Steven was pursuing a glamorous international career - with a freshly minted advanced degree, consorting with the global elite and the enforcers that serve them ”hunting dangerous people for large sums of money.” Then during the global pandemic, when the glamor ended, Steven began to reflect on his own journey and develop it into the Ancient Futures graphic novel series, an epic tale told on multiple levels - a dark global organization waging a war on Science, a rogue professor with an unbelievable technology, angels sacrificing heavenly status, and the meta-dimensional forces coming to oppose them, and one dude caught up in it all, just trying to lead a Dope Life.
