September 2017 starts a new chapter as I launch Digital Stewardship Strategies, LLC, a boutique consultancy focused on providing strategies and operational guidance to organizations that wish to establish or expand privacy and data use programs aligned with data stewardship and data ethics. Cross-organizational programs centered on data stewardship enhance customer trust and support business opportunities and growth.

This new adventure begins in tandem with formal acknowledgement of a long career in privacy - 18 years and counting! I've been accepted as an inaugural IAPP Fellow of Information Privacy (FIP). The official list can be found in the IAPP public online directory* of esteemed FIPs. I am honored to have received this recognition - thank you IAPP!
