CURRENT MISSION

I am an author and economist and the founder of the Institute for Economic Evolution, whose purpose is to advance economic research that evaluates society holistically by including all stakeholders and available data to address contemporary challenges.

At my home in Tampa I have hosted over 80 travelers from over 20 countries in the past 5 years and made so many great connection and friends. I've surfed in three countries and loved every experience.

One of my favorite experiences was using Couchsurfing so I I could both audition and subsequently speak at TEDxAkron in 2018.
