02 / Audience response

A detail people
recognize.

My apple-slices video reached 7.4 million views. Jaywalking NYC’s “Knicks in five” reached 1.8 million, as displayed October 9, 2026.

I’m interested in what people recognized, what they argued about, and what made them send it to someone else.

LinkedIn weekly performance reports. Totals across posts, not individual video views or unique people.

Reach shows attention. It does not establish client revenue or business impact. The two panels use separate scales.

Going viral is fun. The longer ambition is writing people want to read—and editors want to commission.

03 / Applied work

The work beyond
the writing.

Consulting, coaching, and workshops bring these questions into real assignments: clarify the problem, make a decision, help a team practice, and move work forward.

04 / The next chapter · My intention

Earn the assignment.
Do the reporting.

I’m building toward paid freelance writing.

I want assignments that draw on my authorship, years in business, curiosity about people, and willingness to say what the evidence supports.

I want to work with an editor and produce something worth a reader’s time. This is the next result I’m working toward.

Discuss a paid writing assignment

Bring the pieces together

The Clean Data Alliance conference I’m planning gives these efforts a gathering point. Writing surfaces questions. Practitioners bring responses. Working sessions make those responses usable.
