ClearEdge Market Intelligence LLC

25 Years of Research. One Focus: Insights That Move the Needle.

I founded ClearEdge Market Intelligence after more than two decades leading research projects for utilities, technology firms, consumer brands, and global organizations. I launched ClearEdge to bring that same rigor directly to founders and small businesses — without the agency overhead.

My approach is different because I've sat on both sides of the table — as the client making strategic decisions and as the researcher responsible for delivering insights that hold up.
