Tomorrow is my birthday and that means I’ve experienced over 28,000 days on this earth.
That’s a lot of days and and experiences and I’m fortunate to say that most of them have been good ones.
I’m an early riser and welcome every day and its challenges with vigor.

This past week was an exciting one for me. One of my favorite sports is Connecting people with the intention of creating opportunity. It may have been a record week.....
It was an experience that exemplified what we say every day in Gotham.
I have been somewhat intrigued with the latest scandal that’s been in the news, Operation Varsity Blues.

Apparently it's quite a cattle call. My number is 2757 and they start the week at 1001. However, they are calling in 600 people on Monday. My guess, I get pulled in on Thursday.
