We did something special during my wife’s pregnancy — we made a Spotify playlist we played almost daily. We used it during labor too. Now that same playlist soothes our baby when she’s fussy. Wild how much she actually heard in the womb. The playlist still rocks — and it’s a.

Things can change fast if you have the will and desire to do something about it.

What do you want to know?.

I started my career in deals. The work was hard, tedious, and often meant partnering closely with the client’s business development team. What surprised me was how much of the process relied on stakeholders outside of biz dev — functional leaders with full-time roles who.

Q&A during M&A deals is still broken. Back in 2021 at PwC, we were managing counterparty questions in excel — rows of asks, email handoffs, version control nightmares, etc. It was organized chaos. From what I’m hearing, not much has changed. This part of the process is.

Started a substack to get better at writing and share some of what I’ve learned over the years. Give it a read if you’re curious to see where this goes:.

Welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the world this week. Feeling incredibly grateful and excited for this new chapter of parenthood. If you have any great accounts or resources for new dads, I’m all ears — I follow a few already but would love more suggestions!

Just got into NYC for the real estate gala. Thanks for hosting @realEstateTrent and @BobKnakal!.

RT @maxkolysh: Your interview process is probably killing your chances of hiring great people. After 5 years at Dover, I've seen the same….

Most people don’t realize how much momentum comes from just showing up and doing the simple stuff well.

Marriage is basically an extended sleep over. Or at least my wife and I feel it’s important to keep a relationship feeling fun like that.

Back in Scottsdale for the second time. Forgot how nice the weather is this time of year.

Couple good figma sessions this week for some new stuff we’re working on. Excited to share more soon.

Ground turkey, rice, and bbq sauce is such a classic meal. It’s cheap, easy, clean, and high protein. Its been in my meal rotation for 10 years and still not tired of it. No need to over complicate things in the kitchen.

I used to think the right productivity app would solve everything. Notion. Todoist. Apple Notes. Roam. Tana. I tried them all—convinced the perfect setup would magically give me more time back in my day. Spoiler: it didn’t. Instead, I spent more time organizing than actually.

I don’t get the Sunday scaries. Here’s how I’ve eliminated them:. 1. Pick your 3 most important tasks for Monday. Dump everything on your mind, then rank it. Focus on what actually moves the needle. 2. Decisions drain energy. Move fast on reversible ones. Slow down when the.

We bought a bigger house last year so we’d have more space for our family and to host the people we love. Spent the year renovating—fixing things up, making it feel like home. Today, we had 50+ friends and family over for our baby shower (first kid on the way). One of those.

My wife and I are hosting our baby shower at our house, which of course meant I had a few weeks to finish months of house projects. Nothing like 50 guests to light a fire under your DIY game 😅.

The best version of a thing is often the simplest version of the thing.

It’s pretty cool that I left consulting in 2021 because I was interested in getting into tech. And here I am. Sometimes you just have to go for it.

Having a bias for action is such a superpower. When I’m building a team—especially at an early-stage startup—high agency matters more than almost anything. It’s tough to coach. You either have it or you don’t. And if you don’t, it usually takes time (and a few tough reps) to.
