About Me

What is a 21st Century Ecologist?

One who understands ecological systems, technological systems, and how to integrate them into the societal understanding and management of our natural world.

I am a recognized industry expert in UAVs and remote sensing technology, specializing in environmental monitoring across forestry, agriculture, wildlife conservation, wildfire management, and environmental engineering. With a foundation in computer science, environmental science, and environmental policy, I excel at integrating advanced data-driven technologies to enhance ecological understanding and operational decision-making. I am uniquely capable at bridging the gap between scientific research and real-world application by translating complex ecological data into a vision with actionable insights. I am adept at synthesizing multi-source datasets, designing policy-driven solutions, and guiding stakeholders toward informed decision-making that balances economic and ecological priorities.

My diverse career—spanning software development, international agroforestry, academic research, and corporate innovation—has honed my expertise in data analytics, GIS, remote sensing, and UAV mission design. As founder of 21st Century Ecology, I drive technological advancements that optimize environmental strategies while fostering education and sustainable solutions. Guided by integrity, curiosity, and a deep-rooted passion for the natural world, I am committed to leveraging cutting-edge technology and policy-driven strategies to foster sustainable resource management, empower ecological innovation, and drive impactful environmental stewardship.
