I am a 49 year old husband and father of a 16 year old, living on 10 acres outside of Austin Texas. I work as a non-technical executive in the tech industry. Liberal in my politics, a midwesterner at heart, a textbook introvert, chronic ruminator, latent minimalist and a voracious consumer of audiobooks and podcasts. Swimming against the prevailing currents in pursuit of peace, balance, creativity, simplicity and meaning.
