2016, hmm ...

Recovered from a nervous breakdown while overworking and learned a powerful philosophy that changed how I viewed work, play; art and mission.

Finally found a startup who is doing work among the categories of things I have identified as making a real impact on the world ... and whose product is valued enough for me to actually get paid enough to support a family on it. Is there risk it will fail? You bet. And I'm having the time of my life doing something I feel is worthwhile with people that feel the same.

Helped my wife fight to regain custody of her daughter. In the meantime I learned more than I ever wanted to know about relationships. Dating is hard, relationships are much harder.

I used to live in northern Arizona for the past few years (where I loved it) and moved to Phoenix. I miss Seattle, the weather, the city, and the people :-)

2016 was an intense year for myself and a lot of people I know. It wasn't just the election. There were a great deal of uncertainty and suffering. It was a long journey, and there might be more -- but I don't regret it.
