Commercialization · Innovation · Learning
The future is a moving target.
I help researchers, founders and industry leaders turn breakthrough science and ambitious ideas into practical decisions, market opportunities and lasting impact—from early-stage ventures and 10× moonshots to executive learning and global workshops.
What I do
Better questions. Practical decisions.
Connecting possibility to the realities of operations, people, time and capital.
I work with researchers exploring commercial applications, founders building new ventures and organizations deciding how to put emerging technology to work.
Across commercialization, venture development and learning, the goal is a clearer understanding of the opportunity and a practical next step.

Moonshot ambition. Practical action.
The hardest problems invite us to question what we assume is possible.
My work includes global innovation programs, XPRIZE-scale moonshots and the practical challenge of translating ambitious ideas into action.
A bold goal gives the work direction. Useful frameworks, disciplined experiments and honest evidence help people decide how to move forward.
