ABOUT JOHN HARPER
I work at the intersection of technology and public access to information. Since early roots in journalism, I’ve focused on how digital platforms carry the conversations that define contemporary society—building trust and authority in civic sources of knowledge. Today I drive end-to-end, platform-scale web initiatives across public sector projects. My experience includes mapping customer journeys, defining requirements through research-driven user stories, and supporting projects to integrate APIs and site-wide components into testable solutions. With startup and journalism experience leading me into product-first leadership, I leverage the power of and interpersonal discussion and strong narratives to move the needle on software outcomes that empower people.
