I’ve been called many things:

• AI Inventor
• Keynote Speaker
• Fortune 50 Executive
• Best Selling Author

At my core, I’m a practical futurist. I grew up on the factory floor of my family’s manufacturing firm.

I have worked across the finance sector, inventing products for retail banking for Bank of America, to training leaders in private banking for JP Morgan and briefing M&A experts from KPMG and Alvarez & Marsal to briefing state financial regulators for CSBS. From AI to geopolitics to demographics, I open your audience to the broad social, economic and technological trends we face today and leave them empowered with actionable tools.

As the global futurist at HP, I directed long-term strategy and technology vision. I’m also an advisor to the CEO at Frost & Sullivan, one of the largest global private manufacturing technology intelligence agencies. While serving as the Senior Fellow at the HBR China New Growth Institute, I’ve gained a deep awareness of East Asian markets. These roles led me to author the international bestseller, Rogue Waves: Future-Proof Your Business to Survive and Profit from Radical Change (McGraw-Hill).

I could easily be considered a visionary in strategic foresight and technology innovation.

But I’d rather teach you how to do the same.

As a financial futurist and keynote speaker, I’ll not only outline how your audience can navigate change; I’ll take them on a journey into the intricate science of engineering solutions, managing change, and creating dynamic growth strategies that leverage disruption.

With each speaking engagement, I dive deep into the unique challenges facing your audience and present a path to growth.

Simply put, I’ll enable you to find certainty in uncertain times, leaving you with the tools you need to reshape your future without allowing it to reshape your mission.
