Back in the day, I blogged a bit. I hope you enjoy some of these musings below. Since 2019, and my step away from social media, I have instead shared my personal and practice-related writing via an occasional newsletter, for which you can sign up at the bottom of the page. If you have any questions or suggestions, please write and say hello here. I’d love to hear from you!
