More About Myself	I’m nearing the end of a 40+ year teaching career, the first half of which was various roles in K-12, and the second half of which was IT education at the adult professional/technical level. Yesterday I saw a Nate Hagens video which, among many other things, suggested that professors at end of career should do a ‘capstone project’ in interdisciplinary, whole systems regeneration. Good idea. That’s what I am here for. Along the way, I collected multiple graduate degrees (history, education, business, computer science). Never finished a doctorate. I guess the call of ot the cross disciplinary was just too much to resist. Random and intuitive is also a sense of direction.
About The Work I Do	Teacher, writer, consultant, organizer, network weaver, social media poster, facilitator, researcher, hacker, visionary, big history narrator, futurist, conceptual architect, recruiter, mentor, hiker, cyclist, kayaker, puller of weeds, mower of the lawn (push mower).
Why do you feel like your work or bioregionalism is important for the future of the Cascadia Bioregion?	At 67, somehow or another, my energy level is off the charts. It just feels like I was made for this moment, to do this exact work, in this exact place, at this exact time, with these exact people.
