“I write this unsolicited. Rodney is special. I have had the good fortune to serve as Co-Chair of Thread with Rodney since June 2014. Here is what I have learned. He has a great strategic mind. He has the ability to manipulate multiple variables in his head at once and make just the right summarizing statement that creates clarity. He does this with an incredible reservoir of knowledge. He has the ability of seeing the big picture while simultaneously drilling down to the smallest details; a truly usual ability. He is a true policy wonk in the best sense of the word. Rodney is a stand and deliver guy. He is not an academic policy guy but one in action making things happen. He embodies the social entrepreneur mentality. Personable understates it! Everyone loves Rodney and is he is one of the most authentically networked people I have ever met! Combining high knowledge level, great thinking skills, a person in action and liked by everyone; Rodney is already remarkably accomplished but he is just beginning! ”
