I’ve heard Theo speak in a variety of settings: from aboard the E/V Nautilus during an ocean expedition to our National Geographic Explorers Festival in Washington, D.C., to hosting the Athens Science Festival. Each time, he captivates audiences with his eloquent storytelling and passion for science. Theo’s ability to connect with diverse audiences—whether in a research setting, at a public festival, or on a global stage—is outstanding. More than just a compelling speaker, Theo's dedication to science education empowers others to think critically and take action. I highly recommend him for any platform seeking an engaging and visionary voice.
