“Engaging, optimistic conversations on human wellness, nature, technology, culture, healthy minds & the creative life-force of the cosmos.”
I am a fun neurodivergent scientist who has spent a lifetime exploring the continuities of humans and nature across the scales of cosmic evolution. I specialize in communicating fascinating insights and wisdoms discovered through my field research as an ecologist.
I have stories to tell from a wide range of scientific, philosophical and spiritual disciplines. I am also the founder of a cultural movement called Oika which blends ecological, psychological, technological and spiritual dimensions to create a prosperous future for people, places and the planet.
I can speak engagingly about:
Human-Nature Relationship
Origins of Consciousness and Mind
The Joys of Nature
Big History
Cosmic Evolution (Physics, Astronomy, Planetary science)
Geology, Earth Science, Ecology & Restoration
The Emergence & Evolution of Life
Human Evolution (Early, Paleo, Neolithic)
Philosophy & Science
Systems Theory & Cognitive Science
Technology & Artificial Intelligence
Spirituality & the Spiritual Dimensions of Science
Mindfulness & Human Wellness
The Joys of Surfing and Surfboards
Culture, Prosperity & the Human Future
How to be happy by reconnecting to nature at on an embodied and spiritual level.
