Skills
Summary
I lead organizations to increased business effectiveness through the adoption of thoughtful and practical frameworks and analytic tools that lead to smarter, faster and more strategic decisions. I have helped companies navigate complex risk-reward tradeoffs and reduce cognitive biases in decision-making in Fortune 500 companies as well as innovative and rapidly changing startups. I currently have a dual role as a Venture Partner, Analytics at Ulu Ventures, and Principal at Strategic Decisions Group. I frequently lead executive education courses offered by Stanford University and the University of Texas at Austin. Teaching and learning from others are huge sources of joy for me, and I have trained thousands of senior leaders, strategy professionals, and finance analysts at companies around the globe. I am a Fellow of the Society of Decision Professionals. Specialties: Decision Analysis, Decision Quality, venture capital, executive education, cognitive biases in decision making, financial modeling for strategic insight, corporate strategy, venture analytics
