Working Together

How I Work

I approach consulting the same way I approach research: with transparency, reproducibility, and explicit acknowledgment of uncertainty.

  • Transparent methods - You see how the analysis works, not just the results
  • Reproducible analysis - Code, data, and assumptions are documented and shareable
  • Uncertainty-aware - Model limitations and assumptions are made explicit, not hidden
  • Intellectual honesty - I’ll tell you what we don’t know, not what you want to hear

What I Take On

I work on problems where:

  • Climate risk intersects with decision-making (insurance, infrastructure, policy)
  • Quantitative rigor matters more than reassuring narratives
  • Uncertainty needs to be understood, not minimized
  • Transparency is valued over polished presentations
  • Reproducibility is a requirement, not an afterthought

Typical engagements include: - Climate risk assessment and modeling - Parametric insurance trigger design - Extreme event analysis and characterization - Energy-climate system interdependencies - Risk quantification for decision support

What I Don’t Do

  • Traditional consulting pitches that oversell certainty
  • Black-box models where methodology is hidden
  • Analysis optimized for reassurance rather than understanding
  • Work where intellectual honesty is secondary to desired outcomes

Engagement

If you’re working on problems that align with this approach, reach out:

Include a brief description of the problem you’re working on, and we can discuss whether it’s a good fit.

No sales process. No discovery calls. Just a direct conversation about whether the work aligns.
