about
I run a small business and write to process what it feels like to be here, now. I'm interested in the gap between how things might be and how they actually are. I think about markets, systems, authenticity, and the tension between theoretical frameworks and lived reality.
This site is a place for inbound opportunities and a forum for thoughts that don't fit elsewhere.
