About
I previously researched energy economics, technology, and policy for the Natural Capital Institute.
In addition to energy, I've also studied math, philosophy, and art here and here.
I'm a locavore, which means that I attempt to eat organic food sourced from within 250 miles. That doesn't mean that I oppose globalization, only that the greater the distance between cooperating parties, the greater the tendency toward information asymmetry. As such, I'm exploring large scale networks of local communities and the economics of urbanism.
But my primary interest is in the transfer of wealth and technologies to solve ecological and market inefficiencies.
