Consultant, Public Speaker, and Writer in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

I'm a disaster researcher and scientist for fiction with irrepressible curiosity about our wonderfully weird universe.

I'm a physicist and geophysicist specializing in disasters—tsunami, earthquakes, asteroid impacts—pretty much all the heart-pounding, doom-riddled science. As a science communicator, I'm creative and passionate about this glorious universe around us.

Ask me to bring science to your fiction, write a story, run a workshop, give a talk, or more!
