Interest in Social Entrepreneurship and/or Environment Issues[edit | edit source]

  • Always interested in reducing my carbon and consumer footprint, and open to new ideas from around the world.
  • I greatly enjoy traveling to new places, meeting new people and learning from new perspectives, especially those different from my own.
  • Alternative energy sources and their use around the world, including solar, wind, wave, geothermal, hydro and fusion.
  • I love teaching children, youth and adults about the environment and what we can all do to be stewards for our planet.
  • Special interests in wildcrafting, wilderness living and survival, edible plants and homesteading skills. I also believe there is a place for this education in therapeutic programs.
  • My dream is to form a non-profit that facilitates nature immersion for inner-city children, youth and lower socio-economic families in an attempt to mend Nature Deficit Disorder.
  • Rural Youth Volunteers in India 2018 is my first Social Entrepreneurship project and as I am enjoying the experience immensely, I would love to learn more about these types of programs and international coordination, outreach and collaboration.
