Help people and communities thrive, move markets, create better, more effective alternatives. Good Works' slogan: "How to change the world, when the world keeps changing." I look at things through the dual lenses of economics and ethics. Not an oxymoron, but essential.

Launch and lead collaborative efforts in social enterprise, nonprofits, philanthropy and consulting. Passions include community development, socially responsible investing, strategic philanthropy, promoting the well-being of families and people of all ages, stages and walks of life, and new approaches to public, community and personal health.

Unite people around common goals, re-frame issues to highlight attention, attract resources, and grow initiatives for impact. Enjoy teamwork, teaching, community and public events, writing and public speaking, service on boards and committees, opportunities for collaborative growth.

Strong skills in working with people and organizations, and noted track record of accomplishment. Seeking to harness cyber and systems approaches to reboot dated strategies, using the power of big data, social media and engagement to build new markets and movements for change.
