Retired finance and operations executive.   Data analyst, economist, financial analyst, strategic planner, process engineer and public policy analyst.

I’m a number cruncher, systematizer and simplifier.  I try to separate “the wheat from the chaff” and summarize data or issues to their essence.  I provide recommendations that inevitably reflect my politics.  I try to see “both sides” of issues and note other views.

I focus on less covered policy topics or areas where data is not reported by the news media.  I live in Carmel, IN and often review local topics.  Since the media focuses on sensational topics, I try to complement this by highlighting more “run of the mill” topics or the progress that modern U.S. society, industry and government make, in spite of their shortcomings.
