I have reported for 15 years from the Americas as a freelance radio and print journalist. My work has appeared on NPR, the BBC World Service, the CBC, Vice, Gatopardo and radio stations across Mexico, Central America and Haiti. I have led international reporting projects, recruiting, mentoring and editing the work of talented young reporters in Latin America and Canada. I currently write about climate change and climate modelling, with a focus on the developing world.
I have taught radio journalism, robotics, soccer and English in lecture halls, offices towers, mud huts, fields and cell phone screens in Canada and Mexico.
I make websites and apps for journalists, researchers and storytellers, harnessing a variety of technologies from speech recognition to 3D maps to machine learning.
From Latin American current affairs and Python programming to fixing a broken down washing machine and writing tips from the sock drawer.
I'm a journalist, producer, instructor and developer. I've reported from a minefield and a dugout canoe, taught radio journalism, robotics, and anthropology in board rooms, lecture halls and mud huts, led award-winning media projects, and mentored dozens of journalists in Canada and Latin America. Today, I write about climate change and develop an app to learn English while you run.
(Conrad's) vision, his journalistic nose, and his tireless search to go one more step for the new, helped us find really impactful stories...
