About

Born in NY, lived in the midwest, spent most of my childhood in Massachusetts. College in Pittsburgh (CMU), back to MA for some years and then Boulder, CO for the last 25 or so! Love the mountains, fresh air, healthy lifestyle, and lots of outdoor opportunities.

Focus

Family

Being married and having 2 kids are my biggest joys and focus. Both kids in college now and I couldn't be more proud of them!

Health

Daily time outside, walking, biking, hiking, hugging trees! Healthy plant-based eating, and keeping a balance of work, family, and self.

Technology / Work

Technology enthusiast and early adopter since high school. Love new tech, but now more interested in how tech can help people and the planet.
