So much to say...


I've had the priviledge to address some of the most progressive thought leaders who invited me back time and time again.

Candor became my trademark blended with a dose of humor and compassion. In the south we have a saying: "when you know better, you do better." Speaking engagements offer a platform for learning cleverly disguised as entertainment. AI became my most requested topic. Learn more! >>>

Everyday is FriYAY!


I'm Amber Lombardo, a Memphissippi farm girl
living a wanderlust life.


What began as a little web dev moonlighting gig evolved into a global community of do-good friends that make my work a priviledge. I'd like to introduce you to them. They're amazing!


My story is one of blind faith. Leaving architecture school to leap into the dot.com boom and riding the wave of businesses needing websites for the first time - it was crazy fun. By far, my favorite topic was PLACEMAKERS, typically masked as chambers of commerce, tourism offices, Main Street communities, architects, economic development offices, city administrators, and more. They are the folks who deliver thoughtful communal spaces that we enjoy every day. Smart, resourceful and kind, they share their insights for us to incorporate into our own life design.
