Porch Views & Stair Thoughts

Welcome to “Porch Views and Stair Thoughts,” my reflections and articles on how our world views are shaped by the everyday — from where we sit and what we see, to the conversations we have and the ones we wish we'd had.

"Porch Views" explores the perspectives gained from our everyday environments, while "Stair Thoughts" delves into the wisdom of hindsight, inspired by the French phrase "l'esprit d'escalier," which describes thinking of the perfect reply too late.

Join me to explore how we work, learn, and play together, seeking unity in a world more connected than we realize and less connected than it could be.
