Patricia Parkinson
Polymathic Consultant • Protopian Regenerative Futurist • Living Systems Architect • Collaborative Technologist
In service to visionary organizations creating evolutionary societal systems for all life to thrive
I offer nearly two decades of experience forming, collaborating with, and leading visionary teams of creators and business leaders navigating interdisciplinary complexity, including six years of focusing on blockchain & web3 – along with a lifetime of being curious and asking questions.
I believe that we can unlock the creative potential for a more beautiful future by activating humanity’s collaborative intelligence through decentralized systems and participatory culture.
We exist in a liminal moment where transformative change is both possible and necessary in order to honor and sustain nature’s systems of being. In response to this imminent reality, it’s clear to me that the choice is ours to create a social and systemic revolution of regeneration that builds on the wisdom of nature’s design principles.
Acting from this place, we transcend today’s crisis of imagination and enter into a new era of possibility.
