About Tom Briggs

Social scientist with 15+ years of applied research, analytics, and evaluation experience. I use data and models to answer questions like:• Where will people go in the event of a terrorist attack or emergency? • Which worker behaviors are critical for keeping people safe? • How do we design systems that optimize outcomes? I also teach and work with individuals, nonprofits, and educational institutions-Disclaimer: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) disclaims responsibility for any private publication or statement of any SEC employee or Commissioner.
