Rick Danner Assistant Co-founder and Chief Chaos Analyst

Rick has spent a lifetime observing bad decisions in the wild, usually from a safe distance and occasionally from the driver’s seat. He believes preparation isn’t paranoia. It’s pattern recognition before the crowd starts saying everything is probably fine.

“A problem ignored long enough eventually introduces itself personally.”
