My story is a beautiful cornucopia of hot messes, fabulous triumphs and simple beauty. At this phase in my journey, I have the luxury of decades of experiences and volumes of stories that shape my interpretation and observations of the world.
I place those interpretations and pontifications into words. Daily. Not all of them make the edit. Hell, most of them are shit. But the words that do make it to the editing folder are the ones I share here.
I’m insanely curious about everything. Curiosity is like an itch that morphs into a seething rash if I don’t scratch it. So, I do. I research. I observe. I learn. I share.
My entire “professional career” is a culmination of this curiosity. My photojournalism career, my documentary projects, my comms consulting, my technology work-- it’s all the result of scratching the insatiable itch.
My work here will cover a multitude of topics, but will usually follow two common threads-- exploring the intersections of humanity and technology and diving into the chaos of being human in the 2020s.
My specific areas of interest are:
Personal Data Rights & Privacy
Free Speech & Protecting Our Voices
Hacking & Cybersecurity
Politics, Economics & Protecting Democracy
Human Rights & Activism
Humanitarian Technologist
Blockchain & Non-Shitty Cryptocurrencies
Mindful Digital Use
Documentary Photography
Voluntary Simplicity
Holistic Living
Medicinal Plants & Cannabis Advocacy
Digital Nomads
Sustainability & Climate Crisis
Urban Micro Farming and Food Security
Environmental Justice
Homesteading and Self-Sufficiency
And so much more...
