There was a time when many guys aspired to look like these super cool dudes. While I admit I’ve made my share of mistakes, dressing like this wasn’t one of them.
During the peak of the polyester phase, I bought a shirt I thought I could wear comfortably. I was in Washington, DC, during one of their intense heat waves. I put the shirt on, stepped out into the heat, and about 30 minutes later, I found myself back at the hotel, drenched in sweat. Polyester doesn’t absorb water, so I decided to toss the shirt and wave farewell to that trend.
I’m a dreamer at heart, proudly born and raised in San Francisco—a city that covers just 49 square miles but was heaven on earth for me. Every corner of The City (as we natives affectionately call it) has been a part of my life. No area ever felt too distant. With wide eyes and an open heart, I’ve always welcomed the world around me. I find joy in creativity, wonder, and discovering new possibilities—whether that’s through international work adventures or dreaming up the next exciting idea. Even though San Francisco was my hometown, my passport has taken me to many amazing places and introduced me to wonderful people, shaping me in countless ways. I carry pieces of these experiences and friendships with me wherever I go. Above all, I treasure my family, friends, and those small, meaningful moments that keep my spirit alive and thriving. I never want my curiosity to fade away.
