Welcome
I invite you to journey into a future shaped by climate change, resilience, and the power of human spirit. My debut novel, The Last Butterfly Farmer, is a speculative yet hopeful exploration of friendship, privilege and identity in a world reimagined. This literary fiction offers readers a glimpse into a future where climate challenges exist, but do not define, the narrative of humanity.
Writing the future we want. Building the future we deserve.
If we can’t envision it, how can we build it?
Hopeful
I’m sick and tired of dystopia. Let’s imagine a world where we harness ingenuity and passion to rebuild our cities so they support our future.
Human
Technology and politics are important, but it’s humans and our relationships to each other and the planet that ultimately drive positive action.
Healing
It’s going to take time, effort, and a whole lot of money to set the planet on the path to slow, stop and reverse climate change. It’ll be tough, but we have to do it.
“Come, my friends,
‘Tis not too late to seek a newer world.”
Lord Alfred Tennyson
Poet, Ulysses
Past work
When I wasn’t helping clean energy companies grow, I was writing about the sort of companies and technologies that are creating the future we deserve.
