a character in New York...

I produce, build and lead.

I have produced stories on Broadway&West End, Indie Films and now AR, VR & MR;

I have built apps, games, companies, experiences and solutions;

I am a thought leader of the Art&Science of Collaboration.

I host & play 20 Questions Games for fun.

I was born in the American South but I grew up in Princeton, NJ USA on the “poor” side of town and now live in NYC.

Given my middle-class upbringing in an affluent community, I am a delusional optimist and every choice I make is based on my tunnel of vision. (More context in: I see visions, do you?)

While at Syracuse and then at NYU, I co-founded Thematics, a multi-media design firm, with a select group of now very successful TV/Film/Live performance Art Directors.

In the 2000s, I invented an LED/Fiber optic teaching tool for Live Performance Lighting Design which you can buy at seeLIGHTBOX optimizing collaboration by pre-visualizing real light in 1:25 scale.

In the 2020, I have transitioned away from parenting, teaching and indie films to build Seamless Integrated Dynamics (SindyXR) optimizing Xtended Reality tools to solve my (so far) unsolvable challenges: Parent Alienation and Sustainable Weight Loss.

ChuckieJabba is the apt personality embodied by serial entrepreneur and dad, Charles Carney Kirby II. He is eclectic in his knowledge and severe with his opinions. He lives in the grey area on almost every vertical. Charles is never at a loss for a complicated, dynamic opinion that may not be easy to swallow but will provoke conversation among the audience and, thanks to his years as a high school film teacher, he is adept at facilitating the conversation the audience for his TedTalk need to have to move forward together.
