I want to improve TSA's counterterrorism focus through intelligence and cutting edge technology, support the TSA workforce, and strengthen the agency's relationships with stakeholders and the traveling public.

I think that if the novel's task is to describe where we find ourselves and how we live now, the novelist must take a good, hard look at the most central facts of contemporary life - technology and science. ↗

My goal for technology has always been to reach a point where the technological mediation becomes invisible. ↗

What we can do should never by itself determine what we choose to do, yet this is the way technology tends to work. ↗
