Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met? There’s a funny thing about living in New York City. You can’t help but run into famous people. Sometimes literally. I once bumped physically into Anderson Cooper on the street. Later, my organization ended up honoring […]
I woke up this morning with not one, but two musical squatters in my head. Neither of them pays rent, neither was invited, and neither appears anywhere on my Spotify playlist. Yet here they are, living their best lives on repeat: “Safe and Sound” and Whitney Houston’s “I […]
This morning, as I was briskly walking to work with my phone in one hand, existential dread in the other, I looked down and saw it: a single die. Just one. Sitting there on the sidewalk like it had rolled out of fate’s pocket. It was showing the […]
How do you manage screen time for yourself? There’s a new workplace epidemic spreading faster than a viral TikTok. That is that of “texting while meeting”. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that CEOs are fed up with it, and honestly, I get it. You look around the […]
Sundays used to be for rest, reflection, maybe a little rebellion against Monday. But lately, my Sundays have taken on a new identity. Sundays have become Leftover Sundays.

Do you need time? Do I need time? What does that even mean? I live by time. I run on it. I am time. My calendar and I are so in sync that if it ever disappeared, I might actually disintegrate like a Marvel character in the blip. […]
There’s something oddly comforting about the fact that, while we’re up here arguing about pumpkin spice versus peppermint mocha, ocean scientists have just discovered dozens of new species hanging out at the bottom of the Southern Ocean including, a carnivorous “death ball” sponge. Yes, you read that right. […]
Halloween finally arrived. The day of glorious weirdness I’ve been waiting for all month. And naturally, I woke up at 4:14 a.m. because my body apparently wanted to pregame the day with exhaustion. Who needs sleep when there’s candy corn to contemplate and costumes to coordinate? By the […]
What’s something you believe everyone should know. There are few things in life as satisfying as an underdog story except maybe a perfectly toasted bagel with schmear on a Sunday morning. But this World Series? It’s pure underdog magic with extra innings of heart. Who knew the Toronto […]
