I use innovative analysis, technology, project management, and media skills to develop and implement creative solutions to problems in the public and private sectors. My recent work has been focused on urban policy, especially civic branding, talent attraction, economic development, and infrastructure. I use strategic frameworks and data analysis to generate innovative insights into cites and regions. I provide strategies and policy recommendations for state and local leaders via research reports and direct consultation, and frequently author articles and am cited/quoted in global media and asked to speak at events. I also founded and developed an urban data analytics software platform called Telestrian.Prior to that I worked in technology, principally at Accenture where I rose to partner level. This included both technology strategy work and custom systems development for external and internal clients.
