Stephen’s specialty is the causal modeling of complex systems using feedback loops to extract non-linear behavior. He brings a wealth of experience from the worlds of business consulting and medical software-as-a-service, and has also served as a strategic planning consultant for the business department at Chico State. When he’s not at work on correlation v. causality research, he unwinds on the tennis court, at the piano bench, or in the kitchen, where he savors the challenge of making authentic Chinese recipes with American ingredients.
