Nate, I could not be more enthusiastic about our guest today.

Most of the Explorers Club members that we featured on the show are scientific experts in their fields,

but exploration can mean many things and involve many different types of subject matter.

Exactly.

Being an explorer doesn't just mean finding something new or unfamiliar.

It can mean rethinking the way we move through the world and examining our experiences through

a different lens.

So in short, I'm a creative person, I'm a creator.

I am probably an example of one of those people who's expanding the notion of exploration

because I'm not a biologist, a scientist, and I haven't

done a fantastically physical accomplishment across some great distance.

What I have done is explore the relationship of information to huge numbers of people and

how they can be made aware and made motivated to take action on behalf of conservation.

And that was most of my career within Disney, was projects that motivated people to take action

on behalf of the natural world, on behalf of

indigenous people, on behalf of conservation. And that led to my being in the

Explorers Club and that led to my being involved in the Explorers Club 50 program,

which is specifically about expanding the definition of exploration by extending it to forms of

exploration that are not necessarily the ones we have thought of in the past

into the arts, into culture, into psychology, into the mental worlds that we occupy, and to people in other parts of the world who might not have imagined themselves as members of the Explorers Club.

As an illustrator and a sculptor I am really excited for today's guest.

Someone who approaches exploring from a unique perspective.
