Consulting

Built upon my recent work policy work with national and municipal governments and industry, my recent consulting focus is on 1.) integrating AI into existing processes that support both business needs and human flourishing and 2.) advising on AI policy implementation. Over the years, I have helped my clients to develop policies,  strategies, research, and programs related to AI, education and/or technology. I often play the role of a ‘critical friend’ to leaders who are in moments of definition and change. 
 
Previous clients include the Computer History Museum, Stanford University Graduate School of Education, Silicon Valley Education Foundation, Benesse Corporation, Old Salem Museum and Gardens, the Southern Center for Contemporary Art and the MIT Media Lab.
