Welcome to my GitHub profile! It is also my current Now Page. Here, I will keep my current work, interests, inspirations up to date. If anything that you read here resonates, feel free to reach out using any of the "How to Reach Me" methods listed below.
I am dedicated to fostering inclusivity and community, building decentralized governance models, and enabling collaborative decision-making in complex and emergent environments.
I am Source (see Work with Source) for ODIN, a network of innovators who believe that decentralized innovation networks will replace centralized corporations as the primary way we solve hard problems in the world. ODIN experiments with and mentors evolutionary organizational principles, and creates ways to scale through connecting high-trust spaces so that innovation networks and their members can thrive.
I am a co-founder of Andamio. Andamio’s mission is to create a Trust Protocol on which can be built applications and software that enables communities, organizations, and ecosystems to build a network of Trust that is verifiable and secure. We are in the midst of an evolutionary pivot at the moment, so this will evolve over the next little while!
In my free time, I enjoy diving deep into the intersection of blockchain, AI, decentralization, bio-region/local re-vitalization, and Integral theory. I am also a practicing Zen Buddhist.

- 100 Days of AI
- AI is becoming more and more important in our current global context. I will spend the next 100 days (starting Sep. 15, 2025) to dive deeply into AI and learn how to use these emerging technologies while preserving what makes us uniquely human. Journey before Destination. If you want to join me on this, I'd love some fellow travelers to bounce ideas off of and discuss what's emerging.
