Services
For the past 18 years, I have been on a mission to see the emergence of a digital identity layer of the internet that puts people at the center of managing their digital selves and regaining control over their data.
I support communities around the world working in the field making it real. I do so by actively working to understand and communicated the broad range of activity happening across over a half-dozen organizations with various working groups working on various aspects of the vision.
I share this development and connect the dots for people through:
Speaking – Consulting – Advising
Speaking
I have witnessed and participated in the development of digital identity since its early days and continue to shape its evolution, most recently through blockchain technologies. I have helped build open standards to enable user-centric identity on the internet. My vision of the future is informed by that experience.
When I speak, I find it important and useful to contextualize and embed current development in its history.
I’ve spoken on a variety of identity topics to a variety of audiences, including:
I also offer customized workshops. Please scroll down to the Consulting section for more details.

Advising
I have been around this ecosystem since it’s early days (18 years!) and my role has been to oversee the development of the community and the open standards we’ve developed. I keep up with a broad range of activity happening across over a half-dozen organizations with various working groups working on various aspects of the decentralized identity vision. I know where the gaps are and I can help you develop forward-looking strategies.
I have relationships with my fellow community members who have been around for the whole time and others that have joined along the way. I can help you understand the dynamics and connect you to people relevant to your work.
When I am kept abreast of what is happening for the companies I advise, I am able to pay particular attention when I am speaking at various events around the world and proactively sharing relevant information I learn but also proactively making connections with people I meet who may be directly relevant to building your company.
The groups I advise include:
