I operate at the intersection of science (data intelligence) and spirituality (natural intelligence), focusing on ethical data practices for the betterment of humanity. Publishing over 90 issues of Apogeo Spatial has given me a unique perspective on the future of data. I organized the International Symposium on Digital Earth at UC Berkeley, initiated the “Eyes on Darfur” program for Amnesty International, and covered similar topics in "The Sentry," founded by George Clooney.
Now, my attention is on the ethical implications of emerging technologies, as AI is poised to influence our lives significantly. I'm a certified AI Ethics Ambassador with experience as a journalist, communications expert, and co-host for PBS's “Behind the Wings.” I engage with astronauts, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders, exploring how technology impacts human evolution and translating complex concepts for diverse audiences.My nonprofit work includes initiatives with Geoversity in Panama, where I contribute to conservation efforts and educational programs. My background encompasses corporate publishing in the '90s and founding Blueline Publishing, with notable titles like Angels Flying Out of Hell. I also have deep personal experiences, including a year-long solo trip around the world and raising an autistic adopted son.
