Understanding

Creating common knowledge.

"Curious, Clear & Collaborative."

Water, wonder, wellness and wildlife. My main research focuses on our relationship with our water planet and the animals that roam our oceans. For several decades our team has studied sea turtle biology and marine conservation. We tend to take on topics that no one else is addressing, then move on once the ideas become "common knowledge". Lately our research focus and education efforts have expanded to include neuroconservation: cognitive science as it relates to our relationship with nature, including projects we call Blue Mind Works and Wildlife Conservation Therapy. If you'd like to stay in touch, join our e-list.
