I am the founder of Promenade Advisory, a narrative architecture and strategic advisory firm working at the intersection of digital assets, capital markets, and global convening. I serve as Executive Producer of USA House, which is hosted at major multilateral forums like the World Economic Forum. I also host Bits and Borders, a podcast covering frontier tech and frontier markets, with a focus on the intersection of digital assets and emerging economies. I previously served as Editorial Director at Filecoin Foundation and Managing Director at CoinDesk, where I oversaw the company's flagship Consensus event. Prior to that, I spent four years in the Financial Times Washington bureau, covering politics, regulation, trade, and business enterprise for the print and online editions. I hold an M.A. in International Commerce and Policy from George Mason University and a B.A. in Social Sciences from The College of St. Scholastica. I hold a small amount of Bitcoin.
