about

I’m an independent publisher, researcher, futurist, activist, environmental scientist and systems thinker, and artist. I describe myself as a Social Green Libertarian — a worldview rooted in the Golden Rule: do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Individuals should be free to act, speak, love, and create as they choose — with one essential boundary: freedom ends where harm begins.

I’m a bright‑green environmentalist and technogaian thinker who treats sustainability as duty and stewardship as praxis. I’m a humanist who believes in structural fairness. I oppose surveillance states, bloated bureaucracy, and brittle hierarchies. I advocate for governance that is modular, informed, and humane — systems that empower rather than control, and that never erode self‑trust or direction.

Spiritually, I follow Christianity through stewardship, compassion, and the belief that God is love. Love isn’t just sexuality; it’s connection, integrity, and honoring the bonds between people, families, communities, and the living world. I try to see more commonality than difference.

I work toward closing the digital divide, widening the circle of dignity, and building systems where freedom, care, and shared responsibility evolve together.

I am a transhumanist driven by scientific curiosity, especially neuroergonomics, holistically informed systems design (e.g., calmtech), and ethical self‑optimization. I’m a photographer, digital artist, and PC gamer. I’m vegan‑in‑transition and a leftist who isn’t drifting right.

I’m aligned with the California National Party’s emphasis on bioregionalism, environmental ethics, autonomy, and organic solidarity. To me, California isn’t just one state among many.

I believe autonomy must be paired with ecological and ethical accountability — and today, that includes reparations for past injustices. A post‑racial or post‑class society cannot emerge otherwise.

As a technologist advocating for global good (ICT4G), I believe innovation carries a profound moral responsibility. Technology shouldn’t be developed or hoarded solely for convenience or localized wealth. We must leverage it to close the digital divide and widen the circle of dignity — ensuring affordable access, digital literacy, and equal opportunity reach marginalized communities worldwide. True progress is measured by how effectively it equalizes opportunity and improves baseline human conditions across the globe.

California, to me, is a bioregion of healing, interconnectedness, inclusivity, and radical honesty — a challenge to the idea that society must be guided by fear, control, greed, and inherited wars.
