GroundSource enables community-based organizations to build authentic, two-way conversations with their stakeholders via mobile. We've eliminated many of the barriers to community engagement to power inclusive, rich conversations with even hard-to-reach communities. We work with media orgs, small and large NGO's, non-profits, and individual journalists/researchers here in the US and in Africa. We have ambitions to spread to East Africa and throughout the US (to start), focusing on organizations that need to reach out to their communities and engage them directly in ways that are hard/impossible to do via social media because (among other reasons): * their community is not digitally-switched or only have phones that support text/voice* because they don't have a pre-existing relationship and therefore engaging them on social is a non-starter * because they want to establish a direct channel and own and manage the relationship & the data that flows from it (CRM)* because messaging / texting is the most ubiquitous and natural form of digital communications known to humankind

Stanford, Ca, Us

Knight Fellow at Stanford University, focusing on applying the principles of human-centered design and innovation to journalism. Created a winter quarter class called Redesigning Journalism at the Stanford d.school. Created prototype for Braintrust, a next-generation knowledge-sharing platform.

First employee and co-creator of a pioneering initiative to bring the public media audience into the news-gathering process. Incubated the Network at Minnesota Public Radio News. I worked with tech folks to build a database and a survey-building tool. I evangelized a new vision for journalism, sought out early adopters, and used their successes as stories to get other journalists excited. I led development of news games and interactives to build the network of sources, including Budget Hero (www.budgethero.org) the Idea Generator (www.mpr.org/smalltowns), the Budget Balancer (www.mpr.org/budgetbalancer) and Medical Matchmaker (www.mpr.org/medicalmatchmaker). I helped hire and lead a staff of analysts responsible for training in new partners, working with journalists on stories, and spreading the Public Insight Network to other newsrooms.
