I launched CLP Global, LLC in 2015 to apply my experiences in Washington and around the world in providing private consulting services, analysis, and research. Since 2010 I have also been an adjunct professor in the Global Security Studies Program at Johns Hopkins University.
My current work covers issues in countering weapons of mass destruction, arms control and disarmament, energy, and the security implications of climate change. In 2016, I lived in Tokyo as a Council on Foreign Relations International Affairs Fellow in Japan, conducting research on nuclear energy export trends from the Institute of Energy Economics-Japan. The goals of my research were to learn how the U.S. government might improve how it pursues nuclear energy cooperation and identify potential opportunities for the United States and Japan to promote shared goals in countering proliferation and nuclear safety and security.
I served from 2011 to 2015 as the senior advisor to the assistant secretary of defense for nuclear, chemical, and biological defense programs in the U.S. Department of Defense, an office that managed more than $3 billion per year in research and development, acquisition, treaty compliance, and international partnership programs. My countering-weapons of mass destruction work spanned from projects to destroy chemical weapons to biosecurity capacity-building programs with partner countries. I had the opportunity to work with many of the Department's most talented scientists and engineers, and collaborate with governments and multilateral organizations in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. One of the highlights of my time in the Pentagon was a multi-year effort contributing to the international mission to remove and destroy Syria’s chemical weapons.
Prior to joining the Department of Defense, I was a fellow at the Center for a New American Security (CNAS), a non-partisan, non-profit think tank in Washington, D.C. At CNAS, I directed a program to analyze national security and foreign policy issues related to energy and environmental systems. My work focused heavily on nuclear energy, climate change, energy geopolitics, and natural resource monopolies. Before CNAS, I contributed to two best-selling nonfiction books as an assistant to journalist Bob Woodward.
I have testified before Congress; spoken at the United Nations; lectured at universities in the United States, Vietnam, and China; and authored or coauthored dozens of reports, articles, book chapters, and editorials. I hold degrees from The Ohio State University and Georgetown. In my spare time, I hike, climb, travel, and cook with family and friends.
