I advise retailers, investors, lenders and other businesses connected to the retail industry. For nearly 20 years I have helped retail clients improve the quality of the data driving their businesses and deploy inventory more efficiently. I have had the privilege of presenting to the Board of Directors of the American Apparel & Footwear Association and guest lecturing at prominent business schools, including Wharton and Columbia.  I have been a panelist at the National Retail Federation’s “Big Show” and at the UBS Global Consumer & Retail Conference for investor clients. Many people consider me to be one of the world’s leading experts on the topic of Retail RFID adoption.
