About Me
The simple way to sum up my interests (both personal and professional) is a question: How do you win in complex, competitive environments?
How do you make good decisions in these environments? Where are the trade-offs? What does the future hold if you choose one path over another? Those are the questions I pursue.

How do I work with you?
That depends on who you are and what you do. If you're the kind of person who thinks in quarterly increments, we shouldn't work together. You'll be out of business before you can pay an invoice anyway.
