With more than 25 years of experience in product and platform development in scholarly communications, I like to help industry groups formulate product and technology strategy in a time of rapidly changing business models, new technology, and increasing expectations from users and customers.

I am a strong believer in the power of community-wide collaboration to solve tough problems and drive progress. I spent 20 years working with Crossref, including 10 years as a board member and was a founder member of the ORCID board, helping that organization grow from start-up to become a sustainable part of the scholarly infrastructure landscape before later joining as their second ever Executive Director. I was also a long-time member of the NISO Board and have spent much time trying to solve the access problem in research information, co-chairing the RA21 project, and building a coalition of industry organizations to operationalize those recommendations as SeamlessAccess.org.
