I am committed to unleashing the power of human ingenuity to change the world. I am a strategist who uses human-centered design and entrepreneurial principles to drive innovation and achieve business results in impact-oriented organizations. I believe that our communities and our institutions should reflect our potential, not our limitations. I think in systems but believe that the sparks of large-scale change reside in each of us. I've worked with numerous public and private organizations, including The Omidyar Group, the Social Innovation Fund, Impact Hub DC, GovLoop, and the U.S. Department of Defense to help intrapreneurs and entrepreneurs develop their innovation muscles. I bring a sense of humor and a healthy appreciation for positive deviance to everything I do.
