I'm Parker.
From a dishwasher in Appalachia to a classroom in Shanghai to boardrooms in NYC and DC. I've lived many lives: teacher, leader, seeker, father. Each taught me that transformation happens in the liminal spaces between worlds.
Years as a Wall Street veteran and venture capital backed entrepreneur, operating in rooms where money meets meaning, revealed that our greatest challenges - climate change and inequality - are fundamentally about consciousness, not capital or technology.
My writing explores how the spaces we occupy shape consciousness, why our relationship with nature mirrors our relationship with ourselves, and what it means to practice "service where others are not" in an age of global crisis. Currently a Sloan Fellow.
