I work at the intersection of technical output, visibility, and global opportunity.

My focus is simple: helping engineers, product professionals, and founders turn their work into assets that are seen, valued, and rewarded globally.

Over time, I’ve seen a recurring gap and observed how several brilliant technical works never translate into real-world leverage due to lack of positioning and distribution. My work addresses that gap.

Through GoLoko Diaries, I’ve supported professionals across different industries in transforming their projects, contributions, and ideas into proof-of-work that attracts international jobs, partnerships, and recognition.

My sessions are practical, perspective-shifting, and focused on helping builders move from visibility gaps to global relevance.

It is safe to say that I have an odd mix of experiences. After graduating from Penn State University, I worked for the federal government for a decade in various analyst roles doing things as mundane as personnel budgeting and as exciting as presenting to the Director of the FBI and testifying as an expert to grand juries.

After leaving civil service, my next decade was spent attempting to perfect theme park vacations by working for TouringPlans.com. We used statistics and lots and lots of research to optimize peoples theme park trips and I assisted in many ways from research tasks and writing to starting a travel agency to filming YouTube videos that have over 1 million views.

Now I am a consultant at Centric Consulting, helping companies rethink their data strategies. I am thrilled to once again share my experiences by speaking about data strategy, project management, consulting, statistics, theme parks and, frankly, anything else.
