Overview

I started Thistle Analytics to fix climate analytics for teams who were tired of the workarounds. Previously built and sold a small climate analytics company. Grew the team to 62 people across 4 countries. Most at home with carbon accounting and enterprise sales. I write short fiction no one reads.
