Bio

I'm a San Francisco Bay Area journalist who blogs at myglobalcareer.com and Fast Company and writes & speaks about career and technology issues for various publications and corporate clients.  I have a wide range of interests, many of them media-oriented such as photography, art, social networking, the Web, literature, plays and film. I play tennis year around and enjoy listening to a baseball game on the beach with a good book in hand.
