Welcome to my personal website. I'll be writing about a variety of fascinating issues in the world, focusing on sustainable solutions to our planets challenges.
As a lover of the outdoors I’m a recreational hiker, bicyclist and historical explorer. I enjoy traveling, camping, and pursuing cultural events, live music, public spaces and intellectual people.
With a passion for the environment I'm an avid pupil of the evolving field of sustainability, including renewable energy, corporate social responsibility, performance architecture, urban planning and innovative ideas on how to live and work better. Focusing on issues around technology, business trends, civic engagment and futurism, I hope to offer insights on progressive initiatives and design solutions that foster an equitable and thriving global community.
I aspire to be a communications catalyst for the next generation of private and public sector leaders. I'm enlivend by discovering new collaborators and opportunities that develop my capabilities, enhance my knowledge and nourish my worldview.
I decided to launch this blog as a way to collect the ingenious projects I read and hear about everyday. I feel compelled to share my ideas with the intention of growing awareness, sparking discussion and cultivating collaborative solutions.
My aspiration is to engage and enable ambitious, purpose driven people who wish to develop the world through social innovation and sustainable design.
Feel free to leave comments, share stories and contact me directly with your ideas or professional opportunities!
Cheers!
