I thrive when working across disciplines, building diverse cross-cutting coalitions to create, translate and apply innovative strategies driven by shared values. This has enabled the 20+ organizations I’ve worked with, and those I’ve led, to accelerate meaningful and inclusive social impact.
Which is why I've been called a social entrepreneur and a translational leader by successful innovators. President Clinton once called me a digital pioneer, while recent colleagues describe me as kind, dedicated, values-driven, authentic, creative, ethical, and impactful.

That’s the absolutely fantastic work of Fernanda Viégas (http://fernandaviegas.com/). If I am not wrong, she is still the head of Google’s “Big Picture” data visualization initiative.
I live in New Orleans, and we were actually on the outer edge of Sandy’s circulation. It was amazing to watch the winds push Lake Pontchartrain out to sea and then kick up 10 – 15 ft waves on the Southshore. Definitely a little different than out typical tropical storm experience.
