CURRENT MISSION

Experience new cultures and make friends around the globe

ABOUT ME

I spend a lot of time in east Africa teaching subsistence farmers about Biochar, a carbon-based soil amendment that captures greenhouse gases and improves crop yields, as part of a balanced, inexpensive way to farm organically.
I am, in addition to a scientist and philanthropist, a visual artist. I absorb the world around me through the lense of my camera, and process the stimuli using my sculpture and paintings.

PHILOSOPHY

Share, open up, let the world in.
