About

True Progress is about finding enduring solutions to problems we face. Many of those problems in business, energy, technology, science, or human organizations often seem to be temporarily mitigated after we act, but soon arise again. I believe we can find real solutions, solutions that keep their problems in the background for as long as we remain diligent. Rather than looking for the quick fix, we can find a true fix, and move beyond what is holding us back.

Jeremy Gernand has spent most of the last 10 years addressing critical problems in engineering systems and various organizations. He is educated as a mechanical engineer with a significant amount of experience in risk assessment, root cause analysis, hazard mitigation, event probability analysis, and other techniques that can help any team affirmatively address almost any type of problem they face. His experience working in high technology companies and impoverished developing countries has demonstrated the commonality of problems we face and the universality of methods that can address them.

He currently conducts risk assessment research with the Center for the Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology at Carnegie Mellon University. You can read more about his research here.
