"If you understood everything I said, you’d be me."
​  ― Miles Davis
​​Lately, I've been writing short-form and drawing to explore places, history, ideas, and actions... real and imagined.  I connect with others to pursue better questions and to do interesting things.
Here are some things that I have done, that I can remember, to resist becoming wealthy and famous. My resume was updated more than a few years ago.  If you find anything relevant to your interests and wish to chat, please feel free to be in touch.
The friends I made during my 40+ years in volleyball are significant, and my experiences with them have been purposeful, noted here. I learned much from the sport community, and have worked to return the favor, most recently with The Volleyball Practice (TVP) and TVP's Youth Programs.
​Read a short story that illustrates some of my past experiences. All names have been edited out so others can claim plausible deniability.
