COLLABORATOR, INNOVATOR, EDUCATOR

I thrive on collaborating with people around Analytics, AI, Machine Learning and Blockchain.  The goal?  To energize teams and companies to perform in the new Digital economy.   
I have high expectations for myself and everyone around me, yet I recognize that productivity comes in different forms. I'm very comfortable being in front of people.  I also enjoy “getting my hands dirty” with coding, writing content and helping my teammates to excel.  I have a unique ability to "translate" between technical and non-technical audiences.

Meet AstraKode Blockchain: A Visual Editor for Process Data Tracing - StartupYard

listening to this daily podcast illustrates the bending of rules and data exploitation that has occurred....

really since the beginning of search and advertising broke open earlier this century. it's time we demand some sort of equity for our participation in the creation of this amazing technology moving forward -- even as passive as the behemoths will say.  we have done it with sampling of music why can't we find a way to benefit from the sampling of our data - and I don't think freemiums or subscriptions (ie bounties) is enough.  machines moving forward will be needing our data for a long time. synthetic data still needs real data!  

more machinery is better than just a few.  we have seen this before with railway, telephone etc.  do we continue to degrade music, film, print ? or do we find a way to flourish?
