Researcher. Host. Advisor

To the Credit and Receivables Industry.

I came into the credit and receivables industry buying debt portfolios. What kept me here was curiosity. That curiosity led me to build companies, serve as President of a trade association, publish industry research, and eventually host hundreds of conversations asking the people shaping this industry what comes next.

Unveiling the Data
Behind the Industry

Every report starts with the same goal: understand what’s changing and why it matters.

Speaking & Podcast

Having Conversations
That Matter

The best conversations start with the right questions.

Whether I’m interviewing a founder, moderating a panel, or delivering a keynote, my goal is always the same: ask better questions and leave the audience with practical ideas they can use.
