About Suzanne
Hello! I’m Suzanne.
Futurer by chance. Hopeful by choice.
I’m a facilitator, science communicator, researcher, and practitioner working where science, society, storytelling, and sustainability connect. I help build the capacities we need to navigate uncertainty and shape change, from communicating evidence to imagining futures to reconnecting with place and possibility.
I am driven by the conviction that it’s possible for us to co-create hopeful, sustainable futures.
I’ve been doing this over 20 years, with people across the globe, in multiple languages, whilst living in three continents and six countries. It’s diverse, unexpected, and absurdly joyful work.
Here are some of the organisations I’ve worked with:
