CONSERVATION & EDUCATION

Conservation is at the core of my work, whether expressed through vibrant artwork or immersive experiences.

I believe we all have a responsibility to protect the natural world. As an artist and educator, I use my platform to inspire others to care about our planet and its wildlife. Conservation is a shared duty—one that thrives on education and engagement. The more we foster conversations about science and the environment, the greater our ability to drive meaningful action.

My work in art, science, and innovation education has connected me with diverse audiences, from young learners to seasoned professionals. Through creative storytelling and design, I engage people in discussions about critical environmental issues, making complex ideas accessible and inspiring action.

I have collaborated with organizations such as Galileo Learning, TED, and the Informal Science Education Association to help build a more informed and imaginative global community. Additionally, my long-standing support for conservation nonprofits—through artwork donations and other contributions—has raised thousands of dollars and reached millions of people. Below are some of the organizations that have benefited from my work.
