FOUNDER, DIRECTOR/CONSULTANT

This blog concerns policy that provides a distinct path of action consistent with sustainable objectives to advance human development in a global context. It draws on the author’s background and experience in both development and environmental administration.

My lifelong interest in human diversity began with a fascination for National Geographic Magazine at age five, and I’ve been on a journey of discovery ever since.  This led me to undergrad work in business management and subsequent grad work in development administration.   Along the way, I conspired with myself that through education, experience, personal relationships, and international travel I would gain a better understanding of humanity, its diversity, and engage in cross-cultural dialogue to learn more about indigenous, tribal, and ethnic beliefs.  As a non-believer in ‘race’ as a valid lexicon, descriptor, or category for the human experience, I just don’t go there.

My professional work includes managing funding for fish and wildlife research, management and manpower supervision,  contracting for toxic and hazardous waste disposal, and as executive director of an environmental NGO, among others.   Self-starter projects saw me gain experience among the aboriginals in Australia and a two-year, nine-country, Africa project that ended at the University of South Africa.  I now place my efforts in global human development.  The ‘ride’, as always, continues to be pleasurable.
