Based in biodiversity-rich Ecuador, Alan wears several hats: he is an author-illustrator, an educator and a conservation biologist. Alan?s work is inspired by the majesty and fragility of nature and the need to do everything we can to protect it.  

Alan combines his artistic creativity with his technical experience and knowledge to create scientifically accurate, educational children?s books full of quirky, comic humour and fun action, and usually bearing a message about how everyone can help preserve Nature.

Alan is the author of five educational comic books, among which his main ongoing focus is the Captain Polo series about climate change. Alan is also the author of 3 climate change-themed picture books for children within the 6-8 age range.
