How did I get here? I’ve accumulated pretty diverse experiences professionally and personally over the decades: government, nonprofits, and startups. Human rights, aquatic invertebrates, psychological research, and fintech. On the (more) personal side: land management, property maintenance, cooking, gardening, travel, camping, photography, and health & wellness. West coast, midwest, east coast, Mexico, Europe. Urban, suburban, and rural.
I’m someone who tries very hard to get things right, and that generates a trail of discoveries as I move through the world.
(The nature of the site itself will tell you much more about me, but this is a decent start.)
