About Me

Hi everyone! I'm the editor here at Celsias.com. If you have story ideas or want to contribute, please send me a message: chris@celsias.com. We're always open to new angles and gifted writers.

A bit more about me: I'm a strategist with a passion for innovation and leadership. Originally heralding from Chicago, I've been active since 2003 in the areas of design, communications, business development, and systems thinking. During this time I've delivered innovative projects for the likes of BRANZ Ltd., Auckland City Council, Green Globe, Sustainable Business Network, Organic Explorer, and New Zealand’s only CSR focused consultancy.

Presently, I run a business called Forward and also pursuing my permaculture designer's certificate. I have a passionate interest in travel, have visited 20+ countries, and authored "Satellite Life". Catch you around on Celsias!
