One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I experimented with aerobatics as a teenager. There's nothing quite like cradling a hill upside down at 200mph, looking out the 360 degree bubble canopy to see nothing but treetops stretching out past your wingtips. Pull the stick back to crest the hilltop, dig deeper into that green only to roll out to the upside once again and peel off into the blue. I should really get back into doing that...

Teach, Learn, Share

I have advanced training in the major theories of political economy as well as economics of transition. On a practical level, I'm experienced in nonprofit management, communications, and sustainability best practices. I've taught International Organizations to undergraduate students and have tutored K-12 students in multiple disciplines. I would love to learn about local political economies, cooperative enterprises, cycling (touring), and local cooking.
