Rocky Mountain High
Growing up we did the annual trip our West, generally Colorado. We’d start in Columbus, Ohio, and 24-hours later we’d arrive into the Denver area. Lots of memories evolve from those trips, including a few funny prospective blog stories, but one of the things I remember most about the journey was the dialogue and the [...]

Saturday, April 4, 2009
This entry started as what would be a combination of two events, Austin and Denver. Thus the name, Austenver. Then, I started looking at all the great pictures and people from Austin, and I just couldn’t bring myself to pull the two events together. As I type we’re en route to Denver, placing bets of whether [...]

Saturday, April 4, 2009
My creativity brain cells are, I believe, starting to diminish. But the excitement on the road for Univera isn’t! Sometimes when I write these entries about the Road Tour I feel like it might read as a bit of over-enthusiasm for these events, but really, if they weren’t good events I either wouldn’t write about them [...]

Saturday, March 28, 2009
We arrived in Montreal on Wednesday night, with a bit of a prolonged adventure what with our RGL and NGL experience which I already addressed in another blog post. Thursday was a day of meetings regarding the Univera/Matol integration, with lots of leadership from Bijan and Jonathan. I can’t mention all the names of the great [...]

Monday, March 23, 2009
Over the past year I’ve found meaning in finding a cause. Outside of work. Work is meaningful, and in fact I genuinely ENJOY work. I doubt I will ever retire–though I’m sure if you’re a bit more “experienced” in life you’re thinking “well that’s easy to say at 35 years old”, right? Work is a real blessing, and [...]

Sunday, March 1, 2009
Somedays are brilliant in their simplicity. I’m usually pretty restless but this weekend I enjoyed some simple time. Yesterday, after I awoke and brewed a pot of “Top Pot” decaf coffee, the sun broke through the morning clouds and filled the sky for a few brief moments. The day was simple, in that we woke up [...]

Saturday, December 20, 2008
Most of you are familiar with my two kids, Royce and Zoe (ages 6 and 5). I realize I’m biased, but they really are adorable and what I love so much about them is their hearts are–usually–so passionate and giving. They are really sweet kids and we’ve been blessed by them in so many ways. In [...]

Sunday, June 15, 2008
Today marks a really special day. Many of you have had the privilege–at least I think it is, but I also haven’t gone thru the teenage phase yet –of experiencing the role of being a Dad. Perhaps some of you served this role beyond even a biological sense, to kids adopted or embraced not yours. [...]
