Research & Project Highlights
My work lives at the intersection of data and destiny:
Orlando Museum of Art Analysis Series
Organizational Lifecycle in Crisis
Governance Failures in the Basquiat Fiasco
Data Analytics Projects
Buffalo Absentee Landlords: Tableau dashboard highlighting code violations
Spotify Hits Analysis: SQL database exploring trends in popular music
Museum Revenue Insights: SQL integration for strategic growth
These credentials built the strategist. But somewhere between analyzing Buffalo’s housing crisis and architecting AI ethics for OpenAI, I discovered something:
The same precision I use to optimize Fortune 500 algorithms works on the universal algorithm. The rigor that earned a PhD? It’s the same discipline that manifests miracles.
I don’t choose between my analytical mind and my intuitive power. I weaponize both.
Because the future belongs to those who can read data AND energy, who can optimize systems AND consciousness, who understand that the most powerful strategies work on every plane of existence.
Ready to operate at that level?
