I'm not sure that I'll update about the program every week, but I just finished the first (4-day due to Labor Day) week of Insight AI. I had pretty much no clue what the program entailed outside of building an applied Artificial Intelligence project. One of my friends had done the program in the past …
AI Fellowship
Apologies to people who regularly check this blog and find no updates. I have been pretty deep with my studies the past month, and have had little creative brain energy to write. I'm pretty excited to announce that I interviewed for, got offered, and accepted a fellowship at Insight in Palo Alto for Artificial Intelligence! …
Leveling Up This Week
Had a good well-rounded week here in Silicon Valley. I’m pretty conscious each week to not neglect my career, relationships, and physical/mental health. I have a hard to fix habit of both aggressively scheduling my accomplishments for the day/week, and also stumbling onto new and improved things to do. Overall though if I can slightly …
Quick Update
I deleted two half-written posts this week which has caused a delay in me putting something on here. I enjoy writing like many other people to clarify my own thoughts, but I was getting bored with myself, and I didn’t want to subject you to that boredom as well. The past week I’ve had …

I wouldn’t have had a fraction of my success in life without distilling wisdom from others, particularly in the book format. Most of us aren’t born into life circumstances that give us access to mentors, or at least not in …
Wedding In Santa Barbara
I’m pretty good at following up right after blogging about posting weekly on here missing the next week. I did have a reasonable for me excuse though: I spent 1.5 weeks writing a speech for my friends’ wedding in Santa Barbara that I delivered this past weekend. I have a love/distaste relationship with …
Visiting Utah
I just spent a half-week in the Salt Lake City area of Utah and loved it. Having lived in Boulder, CO for six weeks, and Nelson, New Zealand for 3 months, I would happily match the outdoors in Utah against either place. The thing that blew me away about Salt Lake was the proximity to …
My Money That I Brought to Vegas Stays in Vegas
I’m currently traversing the skies back to San Francisco after a week-long stint in Las Vegas. A major hobby of mine for the past 10+ years has been playing poker, and I’ve always fantasized about spending a long period of time during the World Series of Poker (a month of large tournaments in Las Vegas …

ALLOW ME TO REINTRODUCE MYSELF
I regularly blogged at this address from May 2013 to September 2016 which became one of the more fulfilling projects that I’ve done in my life. Initially I was terrified at the vulnerability, but for some reason I felt compelled to continue to write in public. Perhaps because no one knew it existed for a …
