I read EF Shumacher's Small is Beautiful and Danielle Meadows The Limits of Growth in early 70's part of my extra curricular education while pursuing a B.S. degree at the University of Houston.  They were transformative and ever since (I'm 71 in 2023), have striven to live in the confines of the doughnut.  I'm working towards my solar powered small house in Clinton MA, where I hope to die listening to a healthy bird population thriving in a well maintained forest ecosystem.

I accept all my feelings without censoring them. I reclaim and occupy the dwelling of my physical, emotional, spiritual presence and instinctual energy. With this understanding everyone is loved and respected as a human being. All living organisms are recognized as partners in building better tomorrows. Hence, over 40 years I have been learning while interacting with religious institutions, government and nongovernmental organizations with grassroots support programs.

I am a human-centric leader in the field of engineering, design, advisory and construction. I have lived experience with trauma, conditioning and impacts of emotional fields.  I have lived the pattern. Understood the pattern.  Turned it into parameters for an equation.  I believe I have the makings of the equation that brings together all known and accepted theories.  This equation can turn Donut Economics from a movement to action through analytical evidence.  I need help to move this forward.  I hope you will come on this journey with me.  This is our future.
