ABOUT ME
I love travelling and living abroad. Originally from NYC, I have lived in Boston, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Israel, Tokyo, Singapore, Hong Kong and Taipei and have travelled all over Asia, parts of Europe, the Middle East, Africa (Egypt) and South America (Peru). I now live in the fantastic city of Shanghai.
PHILOSOPHY
Balance is important. Enjoy life but make sure you are happy with the contribution that you make. Success is how you define it.
