There’s never a whiteboard around when I need one.
That’s part of why I started blogging — to create an ever-changing digital whiteboard that helps me captures stories, ideas, and little moments along the way.
From the community-building work I do in managing our 75-company portfolio network at Union Square Ventures to the educational development work I do on the non-profit board of Comp Sci High and Northwestern University’s alumni association, I spend a lot of time thinking about ways to bring people together. I also think a lot about learning and developing professionally, both in the way that I seek out new job opportunities and the way I help advance my leadership and management capabilities.
And that, in a nutshell, is this blog — a collage of stories from my work, my life, and my travels. If something you read resonates with you, I’d love to know about it. Maybe we’ll meet in person one day and we can whiteboard together.
