Working with others to make the world a bit better motivates me. I am passionate about using tech to embrace human love. My 5-year goals: 1) Live a good day every day; 2) Live a loving life; 3) Live at the moment. I replenish myself by going for a run with my dog Skye – completely free and it makes me happy.
