There is so much power in face-to-face (f2f) interactions, no matter how small it is. It is opening so many fun doors for me to make new connections as I get to discover San Francisco. I am going to mention the evening of Feb 26th. I feel the exhilaration of San Francisco through the physical impact of Caltrain, Uber, General Assembly, 111 Minna Gallery and DaDa Bar in the rain and the people and dog I get to meet in these spaces. At the end of the day, I get to come home to be with my family and experience the windy rainy night with Finnegan. It makes me so happy to be alive and be in this space. I am learning so much about people, their dreams, hopes, fears, vision. My time here is only beginning. So excited. I am grateful for time, space, and most importantly, people.
