Research-Function Review

An independent, rigorous assessment of whether your internal market and economic thesis holds up.

Most leaders never get an outside check on the research their decisions depend on. I review your work the way I review my own: testing the logic, methods, assumptions, evidence, blind spots, and executive usefulness.

I've built economic models, policy indexes, market forecasts, and executive-ready research used by business leaders, policymakers, investors, and national media. I know what credible analysis looks like — and where weak work breaks down.

You get a clear read on what is sound, what is risky, and what needs to be fixed before it shapes strategy, messaging, investment, or public claims.

Credibility & Media

Experienced economist authority and national-media reach, attached to your work.

Strong research doesn't move markets, customers, policymakers, or investors unless people understand why it matters.

I help elevate your brand, sharpen your thesis, and explain the market context around your work — in reports, op-eds, media interviews, executive briefings, podcasts, events, and public-facing commentary.

You get credible economic storytelling and trusted outside authority without having to build that platform from scratch.

Build Your Research-Driven Content Engine

A proprietary data product, the analysis behind it, and the credibility to make customers pay attention.

Most companies sit on customer data that could power genuinely original economic content — and produce vendor-grade blog posts instead. I work with marketing and research leaders to build the data product, write the supporting analysis, and bring the senior-economist authority that gets the work read and quoted. Quarterly outlooks, proprietary indexes, original reports, market briefs — built for your brand, with my name attached when that helps.

You get analysis that's rigorous enough for experts, clear enough for executives, and compelling enough to captivate your customers.

Advisory Retainer

Standing access to an experienced economist who tracks your markets before the questions become urgent.

A recurring advisory relationship for companies that need a trusted outside read on the economy, housing, consumers, labor markets, policy, or the market forces shaping their business.

Each month, I track the signals that matter to you, pressure-test your team's assumptions, flag risks and opportunities, and translate the noise into a clear executive view. It's the lowest-friction way to keep an economist in the room — without adding headcount. I've owned the macro outlook delivered to the Investor Relations team at the nation's largest real-estate marketplace: the same market monitoring, narrative development, and executive-ready judgment this retainer provides.

You get a trusted economic sounding board before strategy, messaging, investment, or public claims have to be made.

Speaking

Keynotes and fireside conversations on housing, interest rates, labor markets, and the consumer — made clear for the room.

I bring real economic insight to teams, clients, members, and conference audiences without the jargon or the one-size-fits-all macro deck.
