Research interests

I am interested in how organizations make progress on grand challenges (health, sustainability) and the social and environmental aspects of new business models and technologies.  I investigate interrelations between technology and society from an organizational perspective, especially in healthcare, and often involving novel organizational approaches.  I also work with foresight and scenario methodologies.

Career

Prior to my PhD, I worked on new product innovation and product marketing at HERE, the location division of Nokia, and represented Nokia in a European Commission partnership, serving as chair of the citizen focus action cluster that worked on inclusiveness and sustainability in cities. Earlier, I co-founded a geography and technology education nonprofit in Chicago.
