I help organizations and communities develop programs for entrepreneurship, economic development, and new technologies. I lead workshops and write about the impacts and proactive choices that can lead to exceptional future results.One of my core areas of expertise is transportation - the lifeblood of today's communities. This includes developments in Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), ride-hailing, and the coming applications of automated vehicles, or “driverless cars”. This work builds upon my previous experience founding the Association of Commercial Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ACUAS) to attend to policy and safety issues regarding practical and positive uses of drones. I am also a pilot of both airplanes and helicopters.I have been a partner in two startups, both centering on helping entrepreneurs succeed in bringing their products to market. I also have extensive media experience through earlier work with film productions, both in the US and internationally.
