About Me

I'm a physicist turned facilitator. I grew up on Vashon Island, earned a PhD in physics at the University of Oregon studying how neurons use fractal geometry to wire themselves together, and went on to found a company that uses machine learning to tell authentic Jackson Pollock paintings from imitations.

These days most of my work is about connection. I'm in the ordination process to serve as a facilitator within Sacred Garden Community, offer platonic touch as a professional cuddler, and lead workshops on wants, limits, and consent. I also build things that bring people together, including AGNIS, a geodesic dome made from reclaimed materials that works on land and floats on water.

I'm part of the Goodenough Community in Tahuya, Washington, and I'm helping to vision what shared income, shared resources, and mutual aid could look like across our bioregion. The rest of the time I'm probably in the mountains, doing partner acrobatics, or wandering around barefoot.
