About
Hi! I'm Ian.
I’m a public administration professional who uses digital tools and smart processes to help organizations work better.​
Formerly of the U.S. Department of State, I’ve worked with NGOs, universities, and the federal government, streamlining bureaucratic processes to help teams meet their goals—often within tight budgets and limited resources.​
​
My goal is to ensure your organization spends its time moving its public-serving mission forward, not wrestling with clunky systems or outdated technology.
​
An American based in Turin, Italy, I have work authorization to support clients based in the United States and the European Union.
​
​
​​​​Digital transformation focuses on updating technologies and internal workflows, reducing manual and repetitive tasks, and making systems easier for both staff and the public to use.
​
The incorporation of digital tools can relieve your team of redundant processes, making time to focus on the human-centered work of your mission: relationship and network building, personalized client support, case management, and advocacy.
What is Digital Transformation?
Some of My Digital Transformation Wins
Moved an information gathering process for $10 million in federal grants that supported 500 participants a year from email to an online survey platform. This reduced staff time by 90%, increased user accessibility, and saved tens of thousands of tax-payer dollars.
Used generative AI to analyze the success of an $8 million program at the U.S. Department of State. The review for this project had been dormant for 10 years. I completed an audit within two months, providing an executive report and recommendations for increased program effectiveness.
Streamlined conflicting workflows for a $3 million federal grant into one project management platform. This led to a 30% increase in on-time deliverables and clearer scopes for each team member.
