As the Co-founder and CEO of City Detect, I help local leaders harness the power of AI and computer vision technology by amplifying the precision and speed of data collection in various contexts. We’re specialists in mapping blight, housing decay, and illegal dumping, providing unparalleled insights that empower local leaders to take informed actions. As missions evolve, so does our technology.

Tapping into my experiences as a US Army veteran and an attorney I ensure our technological advancements align with the highest ethical and legal standards, fostering trust and integrity in every project we undertake.

Beyond the corporate landscape, I am an avid traveler. Whether it’s diving the depths of the Great Barrier Reef or crawling through the Great Pyramids of Giza my travels widen my global perspective.

I am eager to engage with visionary government stakeholders, startup investors, and strategic partners. If you are passionate about eradicating urban decay and are committed to the evolution of smart, sustainable cities, let’s connect.

Together, we will pioneer a future where technology is the linchpin of urban transformation, fostering communities that are not just smarter, but also safer and more sustainable.
