Over my career, I’ve had the good fortune to work in technology development (earned a few patents ‘back in the day’), policymaking (as a young staffer in the Reagan White House Science Office, today at the Manhattan Institute), and in venture capital (in a boutique tech fund). We live in challenging times but exciting times too, as America and the world sit at the precipice of the next great growth wave. One thing I’ve learned: pessimism is easy but optimism emerges from unraveling realities without blinders. The most exciting part of my job is talking to brilliant innovators and policymakers and sharing what I learn with audiences.
