How can I help?

In my free time, I commit my time and energy to causes that create improvements in the quality of life for as many residents as possible. If you’re an advocacy organization and don’t have someone with my skills on your team, I want to help at no cost. If you’re a business/non-profit, you should hire me :) (contact form).

Research/Editing Support

Most of my recent work has been in public transportation and biking policy. I’ve developed several skills that allow me to find information fast and frequently.

Services offered: FOIA filing + management, background research, white papers/policy briefs.

Policy Drafting

As part of my work with Bike Grid Now and personal advocacy with my elected representatives, I’ve written several ordinances and bills. I can write, research, and prepare an ordinance that is ready to be introduced to a governing body.

Services offered: I can write things that can eventually become law for you.

Data Organization/Visualization

I often receive large datasets in my FOIA responses which tell an incomplete picture if the relationships between variables are not viewed. I use a combination of R, Python, and cURL/API requests to process, clean, and visualize data. Some examples of my work are below.

Services offered: Data organization and data visualization.

Construction Design

By working in live entertainment and through collegiate training, I can safely design structures that stand up and can be rigged in the air. These are detailed and explained in my shop drawings which have helped create objects viewable all over the United States (and occasionally overseas).
