To Be, To Know, To Do​
I used to think "I was dropped on Planet Earth with no instruction manual".
It took me a while to write my own instruction manual, and learn some being, knowing and doing.
​
The chapters here are sight scenes along my road of exploration in life,
of owning the value of creativity and passion despite challenges,
and walking my own path.
I hope this inspires others to value their own.
"The future is in the hands of those who explore... and from all the beauty they discover while crossing perpetually receding frontiers,
they develop for nature and for humankind
an infinite love"
Jacques Yves Cousteau
Exploring Space
I have had the tremendous opportunity to work at NASA and the SETI Institute and look at the world and space from this particular perspective. And in parallel, to spend time exploring my own inner spaces.
Every scientist I know has an inner artistic side, whether others know or not. Good science is an art in itself, an expression of curiosity, creativity and passion.
I hope this will encourage others that a science career is not a dry and boring one (it can be nerdy, but it is certainly not boring!), but a rich one of inner knowing and exploration as much as being fully present with others.
Fun science with some projects on the now historical Space Shuttle, the ISS, and astrobiology.

And engaging education through a summer program and volunteering astrobiology activities in classroom.

- Personal, Generational and Cultural Imprints
We call ourselves double-wise: Homo sapiens sapiens. It is time we own our own species name, and practice some natural wisdom. As much as AI is useful, it is my belief that we also need to use our NI (Natural Intelligence) to create harmony and a thriving global society.
One look at the current leadership in the world, and it is impossible not to ask "what happened to humanity?" "What are we doing to ourselves and our own planet?"
If not an answer, at least a partial solution to the way we act lies in historical, generational or personal events that cloud our perspective on our true generous and loving nature as human beings, and our wisdom in connection to others, to our planet, and everything alive.
Public Speaking
Silicon Valley is such a hub for innovation and idea exchange! I have been involved in the community speaking on science, entrepreneurial and social topics.
