CURRENT MISSION

to touch the earth gently, harness the wind and practice social equality

ABOUT ME

I am passionate about my work as an architect - ecological contemporary modernism. I also enjoy teaching my students from many countries.
As a member of Amnesty International I am interested in social justice for all.
I like fresh food cooked lightly and have a primal enjoyment for making fires.
For pleasure I hike mountains and sail in old wooden boats. The wind is free.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in science and have faith in the goodness in human nature.
I lament the loss of liberty in the so called name of security.
