Many years ago, I purchased this phenomenal “laptop.” It is a 17″ Dell Studio model, weighing around 12 pounds. Hardly laptop material; however, it’s pink, which is (and was) a rare color.
This computer was beautiful; the screen resolution and the keyboard were excellent. It was before it’s time, for sure.
Over the years, I tried everything to extend the life of this companion. At this point, it’s helpless to continue propping it up for another minute. So, later this afternoon, I’m heading to her resting place, and it’s gone forever.
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.
