I specialize in collaborative solutions for place-based sustainability innovations. As a sustainability transitions researcher, social entrepreneur, and rural-urban designer, I create cooperative, experimental, and pragmatic spaces for new spatial planning practices, from smart cities to river regeneration. My academic background spans earth system science, philosophy, innovation studies, and heterodox economics, studied in Europe and the US. Grounded in principles of care, craft, and creativity, my professional experience includes roles as a researcher, keynote speaker, social startup founder, moderator, journalist, lecturer, consultant, and community organizer.I’m always open to connecting and collaborating with inspiring individuals.
