Pursue the things you love doing,
and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you.

What I Do

My resumé is very diverse. At least that's what I often hear.

The comment is generally something like, "Your resumé is impressive, but you've done so many things — I'm just not sure where you would fit into our organization".

While it is true that I have worked in a varied set of roles in a number of different environments, from my perspective these roles are all aspects of the same core practice:

Being the Bridge

I don't specialize in any one discipline — I specialize in being the bridge between disciplines.
 

Working effectively within an organization is all about integrating diverse elements (organizations and partners, leadership and frontline, business and technology, growth and stability, simplicity and complexity, policy and agency, human and AI) and aligning them toward a common goal. Both in my life and in my work, I've found that the path to success was built on the process of bringing diverse elements together into a functioning whole.
