Guiding principles

Keep building on my strengths while actively developing new skills, embracing a mindset of continuous growth. No matter your experience or achievements, there is always something new to learn, refine or explore. Growth stops when you decide you’re done learning. There is always room to improve and evolve.

Side hustle

Investing, and reading about 150 books a year!
