Seattle, WA, USA
I’m an author and long-time strategy consultant working at the intersection of human behavior, meaning, and decision-making. My work focuses on why people care, how value gets formed emotionally, and what happens when metrics, systems, or technology quietly replace judgment. I’ve spent decades working with organizations navigating change, and I write about the human side of performance, trust, and attention. I’m especially helpful for stories about leadership, burnout, motivation, modern work, technology’s unintended effects, and how people make sense of complexity.
