Education

I am excited by the ongoing challenges of applying engineering and human-ingenuity solutions to feed a growing global population while preserving our natural environment. We must work across borders (geographic, disciplines, age, and gender) to make our world a better place to live. Despite division, we ARE doing that! I am a technology "evangelist," but I also believe that people are absolutely our most precious resource. The ANSWERS to wickedly challenging problems in our world are SEEDS in young people's minds and we must care and nurture emergence -- providing opportunities for learning, growth, exploration, and play for all.
