Now

What I’m working on this month. I rewrite this page from my plan every week; nothing here is about money or health.

  • Digital inclusion in Nevada County. As a CDT Digital Inclusion Partner, working with Northstar, digitalLIFT and Human-I-T, and helping design a county Digital Navigator Initiative.
  • “Wait, I Qualify?!” The show about programs that lower the cost of internet, phone, food and care, made at Nevada County Media.
  • TechEMPOWER. Keeping the plain-language guides current, so people can find the programs they qualify for.
  • Familiar, the phone assistant. An AI that answers my phone, takes messages and books calls.
  • This site. Relaunching jphein.com, with consulting by the hour and a free 20-minute intro at book.jphein.com.
