I can scarcely believe it’s 2023 already. So much changed in 2022 that it feels more like a decade than a year had elapsed, yet 2023 always felt like the far future.
I hope those of you who celebrate Christmas had a great break. I didn’t celebrate myself but I did do some reflection on my first year in business. I found myself burning a jar of midnight oil and drafted a bit of text that I think makes a nice, honest little bio:
Earth fascinates me and I’ve mapped 3D change professionally for a dozen years. I work with remote sensing technology to map, measure and model the world around us. It’s my passion.
It’s the dynamism of the world around us I love. Atlantic storms pounding prehistoric granite cliffs into submission and building beaches around the next headland. Glaciers carving valleys from stubborn geological formations. Forests breathing in carbon dioxide and modifying the microclimate in their midst.
I get a real kick from sharing my passion for the ever-changing great outdoors with anyone who will listen. It’s not a job or even a project. It’s my purpose.

I’m intrigued to hear from anyone with whom this resonates, especially as I seem to slowly pivot from ‘jobbing field surveyor’ to something much more meaningful.
I’m building something behind the scenes much more aligned with my passion, experience and vision. Feel free to reach out, in confidence, if you can relate as there’s always room for some collaboration!
