Ron Bronson

Public systems are full of small failures that compound: a form that doesn't save, an eligibility rule that contradicts itself, a policy that works on paper and nowhere else. I study how these failures propagate and how institutions can build the capacity to catch them before they cascade.

My work sits at the intersection of delivery and governance. I build frameworks for decision architecture, AI accountability, and institutional repair. I teach, I advise, and occasionally I build the thing myself when that's what's needed.

Also, I'm unreasonably enthusiastic about pesäpallo.
