Futurology
Pattern recognition across technology cycles — what the next ten years actually look like versus the hype. Drawing on four decades of watching technologies emerge, get hyped, get written off, and then quietly reshape everything.
Available for keynotes & panels
Speaking
I've been at the frontier of technology, finance, and human systems for forty years. I talk about where things are going — not from a stage of certainty, but from a career of watching patterns repeat and being close enough to the work to notice what's actually different this time. Conversations welcome; pitches to fill a slot, less so.
Get in touchTopics
Artificial Intelligence
Practical AI as a working developer, not a theorist. What builders know that consultants don't. How fuzzy logic and probabilistic systems are changing what's possible in finance, research, and decision-support.
Crypto & Digital Assets
Grid trading mechanics, fee-tier reality, institutional versus retail dynamics. Separating signal from noise in a space that generates more noise than almost anything else in modern markets.
Finance & Portfolio Theory
Post-MPT thinking: why Modern Portfolio Theory broke in 2008 and what replaced it. Fuzzy logic, risk parity, hierarchical risk parity — forty years from RAMCAP to today's quantitative practice.

Let's talk
If you're organizing an event on AI, futures, crypto, or finance — or if you're building something and want a perspective shaped by four decades of being early — reach out. I'm based in Colorado and travel for the right conversation.
