Asking Why
I used to be silent. I didn’t ask the questions that were nagging at me.

In the rear view mirror
When I was a victim of layoffs 7 years ago, I felt like I’d joined a club.

In search of balance
Two weeks of traveling to visit family across three cities in Texas has reminded me what’s most important.

Very Bad Asian
Today, I’m done being the very bad Asian.

Making Noise
I want my kids to grow up and never hear “go back to your own country.” Like I did.

Art of Aggressive Listening
When the ultra-rich are buying up $44B megaphones, society has become way too obsessed with shouting to be heard.

Goodbye, Marshall
What Milton Glaser did for the world of design, Marshall did for the world of illustration.

Accolades & Gratitude
Humble brag time: for my part in the culmination of two years’ work from home, I am pretty stoked on these awards.

Remembering Dad
When you go to work, you never expect life to happen in such profoundly challenging ways. If you’re lucky, you’ll have generous and supportive co-workers to be there for you.

The Great Imposter
No matter how high up the ladder we climb, we carry the weight of past insecurity like a bucket of water.

Two Year Journey
Most of the time it was impossible. We were at a perpetual breaking limit. We feared that we were failing at both family and work. “Balance” was hahaha a total fever dream.

Our New Abnormal
This week, my wife & I became the very last people in NYC to rejoin civilization.
