Positive-Sum Environmentalist
I began my career as a wildlife biologist breeding and releasing endangered species back to the wild, but I quickly learned that I didn’t want to keep a few species from teetering into extinction. I wanted to keep them from approaching that point in the first place. Since then, I’ve spent my career implementing and investing in strategies that allow both humans and nature to thrive together, driven by a belief that technological, economic, and human progress are crucial ingredients of environmental protection.
Culturally curious nature nerd
I live in Golden, CO with my wife and two young kids. I love baseball and birdwatching, and I spend every moment I can outside. If I’m not with the kids, you’ll find me biking the foothills or walking the local trails with my binoculars in one hand and a book in the other. Time with the kids isn’t much different; we’re either at the park or they’re playing in the yard while I tend to the gardens. Lately I’ve been on a humanities kick, exploring theater, classic literature, and art museums both at home and on my travels around the world.
