From Technology Leadership to Human Connection

After 30+ years leading engineering teams at Microsoft, I discovered that the most meaningful work happens in the spaces between people—in families, communities, and the quiet moments where we choose connection over convenience.

Today, I serve on nonprofit boards, coach families through transitions, organize community gatherings, and study Sanskrit wisdom to understand how ancient principles can guide modern lives toward sustainable happiness.

I don't have all the answers, but I've learned that the questions we ask together are often more valuable than the solutions we seek alone.
