About Dexter Ligot-Gordon

I am a problem solver. I have a background in product leadership, program and policy design, specifically in education, workforce development and public systems. I am an effective strategist in several contexts- operational, political, relational, and economic. I can build strong and diverse teams, incubate projects from scratch, and achieve objectives in ambiguous circumstances.
