My most life-changing, soul-touching moments were in the presence of wildlife. From touring South Africa & Namibia (above), to backpacking the Four Corners region (below), each month-long integration

We’ve grown accustomed to living separate from what is natural, trying to live above it, control it, and drain it. I honor my relationship with nature and emphasize its necessity to others through life design. I practice designing for life through healthcare innovation, environmental intervention, and biomimetic inspiration. I aim to draw attention to the precious things around us on Earth so that we can better integrate into the natural world, assuming our positions as members of a global living network.
