The bench scientist in me AND the human is like WTAF.

We are making very rich people richer while stripping resources from the rest of us.

On my way to the gym yesterday, I snapped this photo. This tall regally dressed man crossed the street and headed across the field.

Can I scream while I’m breathing?

I rarely see discussion of SRY gene or the prevalence of intersexuality on the medical side…

Sub out coke for sparkly water and we are the same person lol.

What I notice from the podium as a professional speaker is that attendees engaged in sessions get the most out of conferences. Intentional networking is always effective, and I tend to remain in contact with many attendees that take time to introduce themselves and extend the conversation.

Wait — all of these years. I thought he wrote Emmet’s PIG, but apparently he did not.

I fell in love with him after reading Charlotte‘s Web, Emmet’s PIG, Stuart Little and in my adult life—Here is New York.

Quietly plodding along... adding 3D renders to your workflow
