(mostly) NOT related to podcasting:
I...
- am addicted to coffee as a drink, experience and marketing strategy
- am a long term serial expat. I've lived in a number of countries throughout the past 20 years. I've been in Copenhagen, Denmark since Spring 2023.
- am from the U.S., born and raised in New York (above picture is from Long Island. I'm on the far left) and Pennsylvania and then I lived in California for about a decade before moving abroad.
- studied Industrial Engineering (that's code for Business Engineering, middle manager training basically) at Cal Poly SLO. Class of '01!
- taught English language/writing skills to teens/adults for about 20 years (above: me & 2 of my two troublemaking students in Taiwan @2003. No, seriously, they were so much fun!)
My Podcast Origin Story
- started my own podcast in 2017 as a decompression activity after leaving (not finishing) a PhD program

- LOVE doing live online events like these (above) Global Podcast Editors panels that I produced and hosted 2x a month in 2021-2023.

- have written about podcasting quite a bit over the years.
