Services.: The services I offer are listed on the About page, and the work behind them, by field, in the Portfolio.
How an engagement works.: It starts with a short call to scope the question and project. We then agree on a written proposal that sets the deliverables, the timeline, and the payment schedule, and the work begins.
Format.: Engagements can range from a single one-hour call, through recurring work starting at one hour a quarter, to full-time work for the length of a defined project.
Availability.: Start dates depend on my existing commitments: sometimes I can begin later that day, and sometimes the earliest start is a few weeks away. Every proposal states the start date. Depending on scope, I may work on more than one engagement at a time.
Rates.: From $500 an hour. The rate rises with complexity and urgency, and may fall for longer engagements. A fixed price for the whole project is also available. Reduced rates are available for academic, nonprofit, and government work.
Where.: Based in Chicago, on US Central Time. I work remotely, and take short-term on-site contracts elsewhere.
