About: I use design artifice and strategic foresight to help people make sense of abstract futures full of challenges and opportunities. Who’s up for a multiplayer future?

What makes me curious? From spacefaring to storytelling—I explore possibilities through provocations and by aligning emerging technology with humanity's evolving needs. A fast-moving, high-powered world demands accessible environments and equitable mobility. I use conversations, research, assumption reversals, and ethical AI/API integration to empower individuals to master tempestuous, scalable, and independent futures with strategic foresight.
