After 5 years doing tech and defense/foreign policy in the United States Senate, I left government to become an entrepreneur. I'm a tech founder and have done a range of entertainment, tech, public affairs, and management consulting. I cast entrepreneurs for ABC's Shark Tank - meeting thousands of entrepreneurs each year. I also co-founded an AI-driven market research platform - Gauge. Gauge connects brands like Procter & Gamble, Snap, and Nike to their target consumers. As a consultant, I have helped big brands like Intuit, Cargill, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation analyze verticals, partnerships, and impact strategy. As a speaker for the US State Department, I have led business and AI-focused programming in Asia, Africa, and Europe. I also host global events like Clinton Global Initiative, Web Summit, the World AI Conference, and AI for Good. I have a unique skillset at the intersection of business, media, and policy.
