I fancy myself a productivity nerd. Which is why it pains me to say that in many ways I’m not very productive. I’m decent at getting things done for work. I’m terrible at getting things done at home. And when it comes to getting things done for myself (i.e. …

You’d think that the global pandemic that we’re still in would’ve prepared me better for the new situation that I’ve found myself in when I accepted a new job about two months ago. For the first time in my professional career, I’d officially be a remote worker. Yes, I realize…

As I was cleaning out my inbox from the weekend, I happened across the most recent newsletter from Jason Bradwell on trade show booths. For some reason, this got me thinking about virtual conferences — the bane of my existence. I’ll admit that I love(d) in-person conferences. While the content…

2015 was definitely a year of change for me. I got an awesome new job (at LinkedIn), got an awesome new wife, and got some awesome life-changing news (baby on the way!). In a nutshell, 2015 was awesome. But, I’m really looking forward to 2016. Like a lot of people…
