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.

People often ask me if I had a co-author for The Spare Room, or worked with a ghost author. Well, you're looking at her! Meet Holly. Over long hours of writing, Holly would slowly sink into the couch as I typed, eventually snoring gently as her velvety left ear...
