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.

Mobile Biosphere Day Five – Learning where you are
Out here, it’s just the three of us and nature. How might we extract interesting, useful lessons for our kids, wherever we are? Today’s physics lesson involved stone skipping. The key to a good skip lies in spinning the stone – spin stabilizes an object, keeping it...
