They asked me how I feel about New York, but I don’t think I will do her justice if my feelings can be summed up within 72 hours of my first footsteps.
This picture captured what I cannot adequately express in words. New York is like seeing flowers bloom among patches of winter-drenched brown.
I am passionate about advocating change for the greater good through authenticity and technology. I believe economic growth is not mutually exclusive with compassion and empathy. I live in hope that young kids will be empowered to make educated choices, not based on conventional wisdom and society’s expectations. I believe in the magic of the universe: Synchronicity, serendipity, fate, destiny & karma. The innocence and naivety to believe that everything will fall in place the way it's meant to be.

meditation, Creativity
The local neighborhood bar has a quiet time between six and nine. It is a place that specializes in coffee, beer and seasonal menus. There is just enough of each for a satisfying snack and effective buzz. After the time when the laptop lids close and before the social gatherings start -- there is a sort of twilight*. Often this time is a fugitive ground rife with creative inspiration and meditative work -- of the kind that results in personal reward.*twilight may refer to civil, nautical or astronomical variety depending on your social or terrestrial condition

Web, development
A man positions his mouse on the edge of his browser window. He clicks, holds and drags the viewport first left then right. The content of a video game promo micro site responds and adapts to the available space. To the man, this is more delightful than the game itself.

subway, music
A man laboriously moves his piano down three levels onto the subway platform. Classic vocals and strided chords -- he played so well I swore he was blind. Oblivious to the heat on that August stage, he was most in touch with his audience -- whom he elevated with his music.

stars, Grandma, Love
"No one understands me," she said. Her grandmother was silent for a minute. It seemed she was searching for an answer in the star speckled sky. "But no one understands anyone in this world, darling. We are all unique. It is what gives us a sense of wonder."
