Bio

I hold a BA with High Distinction from the University of Rochester, and a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

I have provided services to provincial and federal governments in Canada, the Republic of Macedonia, the Kingdom of Bahrain and Sri Lanka. He has also served large inter-governmental organizations (the United Nations Development Programme), IFI’s (Asian Development Bank), bi-laterals (the Canadian International Development Agency, SNV - the Dutch Development Agency), not-for-profits (RTI International, the Wellcome Trust), systems of higher education (the University of North Carolina, Yale University School of Nursing) and corporations (Citicorp, Health Care Partners).

I am told that I have the ability to “think outside the box” while making practical recommendations and managing an incredible amount of detail. Because of my ability to look at any problem with a new set of eyes, from several perspectives, and come up with practical, innovative solutions, people often come to me to solve things, to start things, to run things.

Working with Hal is an absolute pleasure. All that curiosity and positive energy is bound to take you somewhere new! He has that special joie de vivre that is infectious and more often than not makes it difficult to recall what the problem was in the first place.
