Big news. I decided to run for a position on the Select Board of my town. I'll be posting about the whole campaigning process if you want to follow along (psst, there's a newsletter signup at the bottom of every page). The family's also getting ready for a fun vacation. 2025 is off to a roaring start.

Getting on the Ballot

I kicked off the first step in getting on the ballot for the next town election.

These are the active areas of my life. These are longer than projects. Some are permanent, like parenting. Others are shorter-term, like coaching soccer.

STAY IN THE LOOP

Each month, or so, I send out an email with a quick update on active projects and links to anything new I post. Low noise. High signal. Never spam. Hope to stay in touch.
