It’s Sunday, June 7th, the 78th day of Corona Quarantine here in Los Angeles, and I just got off a call from my Dad telling me his best friend has died in a hospital in western Colorado. My Dad, he’s shook up, and he wants to drive to Colorado from Michigan to be with the his grieving family friends. He mentions there may be a funeral in Ouray on Saturday, June 13th.

Like Jodie Foster in Contact, I get to work building a technical framework for building Trust and Safety into the potential upcoming interactions with family and loved friends…

As I reflect back on the decisions I’ve made around my career, and the amazing opportunities and privileges afforded me by this universe, I am certain that now is the time to drop in and surf the wave in front of me to the next crest of value I can offer this world.
