I’m very excited about how things are going as I start my third year of my nonprofit consulting firm, NetBridge Communities. e’ve added more clients and projects as we expand beyond grant funding and writing to all types of fundraising, strategic program planning, and marketing plans and services. We’ve added three new staff in the past six months to embrace our core differentiation of the latest best practices, tools, and apps for all things nonprofit: strategy, planning, funding, and marketing.

The thing I’m most excited about, though, is how we’ve embraced ‘smart’ AI internally and for our clients. I think AI is the biggest thing since the internet, but we all remember the dot-bomb implosion and how Google went from ‘do no evil’ to ‘?’…smart AI is the way to go.

Love being single with a relatively empty nest as I put all my energy into my company. It’s also great to have my 85-year-old mom living with me, as I am two years from entering ‘the golden years’ while she has almost 30 years living them.

I've reconnected recently with some of my high school mates, including Frances Herring, David Freed (Gunn Highschool), David Swope, Mike Pope, Todd Olive, and David Kurtzman

Was a starter for the football team for all four years. Had a few AP classes, but most of story is about the friends I made, including Frances Herring, David Kurtzman, Brian and Jim Whitman, and many, many others.

Never was part of "The Wall" clique -- i flitted about between the jocks, partiers, geeks, and band!

Paly was four years of fun, heartbreak, and memories.
