I am a serial founder and leader of nonprofit and social impact orgs. Most recently, I have led efforts focussed on creating public goods, and innovations in governance and economics. I like hard problems. I have worked on economics, space tech & policy, climate change solutions, mental health & suicide, deliberative democracy and the future of work over 15 years. I am an entrepreneur, organizer, program designer, and facilitator. I tend to build the first phase of an organisation. My strengths are in people leadership and process leadership. I'm a natural facilitator of complex rooms. I also have a deep skillset in program design. For example, I developed a model for multi-stakeholder innovation labs within what otherwise look to be fellowship programs and accelerators. I've refined approaches to funding questions instead of silver bullets. I've also developed a methodology for "starting well" when beginning a new organisation and I give it away for free, with the hope it can help others.My career began in political movement building. I was one of the founders of New Zealand youth climate movement Generation Zero. Within two years we were the trend setter, with a base of 12,000. Within ten years we established the New Zealand Climate Commission in government, and enshrined our policy, the Zero Carbon Act, into law with cross party support.My University education via a BSc in Environmental Studies provided me a skillset from design thinking to the sociology of decision making to public policy instruments and natural resource management practices.
