If you want to build a ship, do not drum up the people to gather wood, divide up the work and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast endless sea.

Insights and tales of life told through my experiences and generally curious nature.
Physical pursuits that I enjoy include sailing, hiking, climbing, skiing, ice climbing, motorcycling, diving/snorkeling, biking, and smiling frequently. I strive to be better than my previous self.
I am unfortunately well educated in engineering and business but always remember where I came from. That young man who wanted a skate board and took over a paper route to afford it. I take delight in other family and cultural traditions binding us to the past beyond our immediate family.
I have many other interests such as and in no particular order: music, art, poetry, economics, zen, tai chi, yoga mindfulness, finance, real estate, chess & the curious ways of the people with whom I share this earth.
