Technology in service of life.

From scaling sales teams to shipping AI tools for the planet — I build at the intersection of leadership, technology, and what actually matters.

What if the systems we build actually served life?

The Short Story

The Builder

I spent over a decade building high-growth sales teams — cultures where people didn't want to leave and revenue engines that consistently hit the number.

I was good at it. But I went looking for something deeper.

The Turn

I went on the hero's journey to adulthood — and discovered that adulthood means being in service to something greater than yourself. Systems thinking. Regenerative practice. Depth psychology. Wisdom circles. Vision fasts. Sought the elders. I did the work (and still do).

That journey didn't replace the builder in me — it sharpened him.

The Work Now

Now I supercharge climate tech companies. I build with AI as a collaborator, rapidly prototyping pro-social tech. I write about the importance of Our Moment in time. And I'm just getting started.

The pattern: whatever the medium, I'm building capacity — in people, in organizations, in the systems that shape our lives. Code is just one more dialect.

— Evan B. Carr —

A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play, his labour and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself he always seems to be doing both. Enough for him that he does it well.

— L.P. Jacks

What I Believe

Adulthood is being in service to something greater than yourself.

That's it. That's the whole game. I went looking for the definition and found it at the feet of elders, in talking circles, in systems thinking, in the deep end. Everything I build flows from that.

Urgency is a catalyst, not a panic.

I write poetry and build climate tech in the same week. I refuse to pick one lane. Life is short and the work is real — that's not a reason to freeze, it's a reason to move.

The seven generations are depending on us.

The decisions we make now ripple forward in ways we can barely imagine. I build with that weight. Not out of guilt — out of love for what's coming.

Beauty is a delivery mechanism.

A poem can change someone's mind faster than an argument. A well-designed product teaches you how to use it before you read the instructions. I don't separate aesthetics from function — the beauty IS the function.

The Chairlift Poet

Portrait of Evan

Recently calling myself The Chairlift Poet, I can be spotted on ski lifts sharing my verse with the majestic mountains and skiers of the Rockies.

When I was a young boy and it came time for my mother's birthday or Mother's Day I would often write her a poem — the truest gift I could give from my heart. It took many years to fully claim my gift as a poet despite looking back on the trail of poetry throughout my teens and twenties.

Today I claim poetry as a craft which I have made a life-long dedication to. Each poem is a channel, like one file pulled out of the full spectrum of quantum possibility, and brought to life via the courtship of my muse. I now offer my words as a joyous give-away of my heart and soul. Whatever your reaction to my craft — I pray it beneficial.

Influences

Quotes are capsules of information, reinforcement, or enlightenment.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” — Buckminster Fuller

What Will You Build?

Life is short. What will you do with your one precious life?

I don't pick one lane. I pick the right people. If you're building at the intersection of impact, innovation, and integrity — I want to know about it.

I'm always looking for great collaborators — for new projects and existing ones. If something here resonated, reach out. I always give in abundance.

If you're reaching out, it helps to include:

What you're building. What you need. And why me.
Or let's be friends!
