This is a headline that will provide an introduction.

These days I spend most of my time somewhere in the warmer parts of Asia with a laptop, a carry-on bag, and a borderline unreasonable interest in finding the perfect noodle bowl.

I left the corporate world behind and now work as a freelance content marketer while building Noodles — my Substack publication about figuring out how to create a simpler, lower-friction life while aging, freelancing, traveling, and dealing with the general uncertainty of modern life.

Over the years there have been plenty of ups and downs — professionally, personally, financially, mentally, physically… probably spiritually too if we’re being honest. It’s been a ride.

Somewhere along the way, though, things shifted.

These days I care a lot less about chasing “more” and a lot more about appreciating what’s already here: the health I still have, long walks, simple routines, slower living, meaningful work, calm mornings, and being grateful for the strange little life I somehow ended up with.

That’s pretty much the lens I live — and publish — through now.

Well… that’s about it.

And if you made it this far, Read Noodles →

It’s where most of my overthinking happens.

Thanks for stopping by.
