The Present

I launched this site in the midst of my “professional halftime,” in Fall 2019. After 20+ years in the corporate world, I took the summer off to invest in my family (last year, we moved back to the States after eight years in China) and to write a book.

As I move out of my professional halftime, I’m excited to embark on my next journey. As of 9/9/2020, the book is available for pre-order and my new job starts at McCann China.

Find the FUN and leave a legacy!

I'm going to miss the apartment where we lived for the last year. Not because of the awesome location right off 405 or huge closets. Rather, it's all about the community and legacy we got to leave behind. Wherever we live and for however long, do you know what? We can...
