Let's find a time

A little about me

I turn ambitious public-interest ideas into durable institutions, usually at the moment a movement needs to become infrastructure. A few things I have helped build:

• Executive Director, Sheri Eckert Foundation, widening access to psychedelic healthcare, funding research inside Oregon's legal psilocybin program, and leading policy creation and advocacy.
• Lead author of The 2027 Oregon Psychedelic Services Improvement Act, bound for the 2027 legislative session, so the first legal and regulated psilocybin program in the world can receive its second draft.
• Helped lead the coalition behind the nation's first automatic voter registration law, now adopted by 24 states plus D.C.
• Co-creator of InnerTrek, part of the world's first regulated psilocybin care system, and co-creator of Horizons Northwest.
• Co-founder of the Portland Psychedelic Society and lead author and campaign manager of the Portland Psychedelic Health and Safety Act, which City Council passed on September 30, 2026, by a very unexpected and hard-won unanimous 10-0 vote.
• Co-author of Idaho's Medical Advanced Healing Act, introduced in 2026. I've written the first draft again, now for the 2027 legislative session.
• Senior roles in the Oregon Senate (Oregon Promise) and the Portland Mayor's office (climate, housing, public safety).
