My father passed away on Leap Day last year. Today would have been his 76th birthday.
Readers have told me that my writing has taken a heavier tone. The past year has been about reorienting my life without my father. My solopreneur lifestyle allowed me to spend a lot of time with my parents last year – and for that I am so grateful!
I am still running Touch MBA, a podcast and website that helps MBA applicants find best-fit MBA programs worldwide.
I love podcasting and writing here but want to make sure people find the content useful. I stopped posting regularly because I didn’t see much traction. So, I’ll be testing different content and mediums this year. I’m also exploring other industries and roles (outside education) where I can contribute.
In my spare time, I’m still teaching and learning Cuban-style salsa in Ho Chi Minh City, hosting board game nights (Castles of Burgundy, 7 Wonders & Spirit Island are my favorites right now), and reading a ton (mostly fiction and short stories).
Feel free to drop a line and say hello!
