Strategy & Industry Collaboration

I work with organizations and cross-sector teams to make emerging technologies clearer, more actionable, and easier to adopt.

My experience includes advising drone companies, collaborating with Northeastern University’s tech transfer office, and helping organize an industry event on robotics and AI in construction. Across these engagements, I have supported technology adoption strategy, commercialization pathways, stakeholder convening, and dialogue among researchers, entrepreneurs, industry leaders, and policymakers.

I am especially interested in work that connects emerging technology insight with real organizational decisions: where to experiment, how to evaluate adoption barriers, and how to scale new capabilities responsibly.

We explored how robotics and physical AI are being applied on job sites, alongside the business challenges of adoption, and the development of meaningful research agendas. Huge thanks to our panelists, attendees, and our partners for making this event a success and advancing the conversation on cross-sector collaboration.
