02 / About

Curiosity,
with a point of view.

Named for the bright, clear energy of citrine and the disciplined thinking behind strategy work: signal, synthesis, decision.

What I bring to a team

Structured thinking without losing the human context. I enjoy turning messy customer, market and operating signals into a small number of useful choices.
