GCRI Welcomes Special Advisor Jared Brown

I am delighted to announce GCRI’s newest team member, Jared Brown, who will serve as GCRI’s Special Advisor for Government Affairs. Mr. Brown will assist GCRI in particular with our policy outreach, mainly with the United States government. Outreach is a growing focus for GCRI, and Mr. Brown’s assistance will be of tremendous value for this. (For further detail on our outreach, please see Summary of GCRI’s 2018-2019 Accomplishments, Plans, and Fundraising.)

Until recently, Mr. Brown worked at the US Congressional Research Service, developing a very practical knowledge of the workings of the US government, especially with respect to emergency management and homeland security. Now, he is applying this knowledge to global catastrophic risk via dual advisory positions with GCRI and the Future of Life Institute. We at GCRI are grateful for Mr. Brown’s contributions and excited for the work he will be doing.

Here is Mr. Brown’s bio, as reflected on our People page:

Jared Brown holds the dual position of Special Advisor for Government Affairs at GCRI and Senior Advisor for Government Affairs at the Future of Life Institute. He was previously an Analyst in Emergency Management and Homeland Security Policy at the US Congressional Research Service and a Policy Analyst at the US Department of Transportation. His work supports the broader global catastrophic risk community’s policy outreach efforts, especially with the US government. He holds a Masters in Public Policy from Georgetown University and B.S. in Social Psychology from the University of California, San Diego.
