Where am I?
South Orange, NJ.
Suburbs about 35 min from Manhattan.
What am I working on?
• Growing Caveday into a leading influence in the future of work.
My co-founders and I have been building it from a single event we ran in 2017, and saw massive growth in 2020 when we pivoted to an online membership during the pandemic. We’re learning a new process to help guide our decision-making and growth based on the book “Continuous Discovery Habits.”
• Writing a new Email Refrigerator every month.
It’s my current form of art and regular accountability to ship. Each month, I choose a theme relevant to what’s happening in my life and the world and write short essays exploring my values, philosophy, and lessons in what it means to live a good life. Why is it called the Email Refrigerator? Well first, “newsletter” sounds like spam so I wanted a different name. Second, the fridge is the best place to put up the most recent best art, the place we go to for a little snack and refreshment.
• Being a better dad.
I have two kids, a 5 1/2 year-old daughter and almost 3 yerar-old son. I love taking them on adventures, reading, making projects with them, and learning about life through them. Always thinking about how to be a better dad and co-parent.
• Exploring a career transition.
Caveday will always be a part of my career mix, but I’m thinking about what next steps I can take to apply 7+ years of learnings and experience as a founder to other work. Incorporating content creation, brand building, community growth, in-person and virtual facilitation and teaching, and building systems. My focus right now is being a senior product designer to help people 1. work smarter 2. learn better and/or 3. gather IRL.
Oh, I also thinking about these now.
