About

I talk to people. Some you know. Some you don't. All fascinating. My conversations have been published in The New York Times, Forbes, Entrepreneur, Business Insider, CNBC, Time, Inc., and elsewhere. I raised a glass of bourbon with Matthew McConaughey over Zoom during COVID, and evidence suggests I'm a good listener: 50 Cent and I have sat down for a combined 4 hours, 15 minutes, and 26 seconds. I spoke only 13.75% of the time.
