WHO I AM
Yeah that's me.
I like to do cool things.
What gets me out of bed in the morning are the people that make the world move. I want to help them move it.
Some folks think I know things about emerging technology, internet culture, data science, cryptocurrencies, identity, social data, gaming, and crowdsourcing and occasionally ask me to talk about them.
I currently lead Innovation at Thomson Reuters Special Services. I also serve as the Manager of Innovation for Thomson Reuters Government. Before I came to Thomson Reuters, I did lots of other stuff.
You can find my bio here.
