John White
Writer, Entrepreneur & Cultural Strategist
Shapes narratives connecting modernization to human experience and community.
"I joined Totale Strata to bring humanity back into modernization — a place where poetic thinking meets systems thinking. Modernization isn’t only technical; it’s a cultural and imaginative act. And when culture is woven into design and strategy moves with story, real and sustainable transformation begins."
