More About Me

I'm passionate about

Generating ideas, stories and products which inspire.

An idea worth spreading

We should encourage young children to grow up wanting to build new spaceships and explore Space. Beyond politics, beyond wars and beyond suffering there is a universe of knowledge waiting to be uncovered. For our future.

Talk to me about

Space, apps, advertising, games, stories.

My TED Story

I think stories and games can change the world. They have changed mine. Maybe I'll share that story sometime.

  • A comment on Conversation: How do we re-embody the education system?

    Jul 24 2012: I'm researching how people inspire others about Space. That's because I believe we need to start early. Really early. Young children should be growing up wanting to go into space. And they should be growing up familiar with the incredible wonders of our universe. I'm creating www.jetpackjourneys.com as a way of doing this and I would love anybody here to get in touch and explore ideas with me. I'm starting with an App but I want it to be so much more. Inspiring children about Space is key.
