Like something out of a fantasy epic.
It took me more than 4 years to capture a scene I could only dream of. A magnificent Condor soars above the peaks of Argentina's Mount Fitz Roy, as they are spot lit in beautiful morning light. 🪶

I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing here on Bluesky, but I am absolutely certain that this is where my panicked #productmanagement rants will go when it’s 10pm and I need to say something out loud but refuse to open Slack or text a buddy out of principle.

I ate a significant amount of pasta tonight and had a board meeting, during which I slammed a cola after 8pm to perk up.

Excited to be here. Looking to connect with a new (or even the same old) circle. I’ve mourned since the fall of Twitter but am optimistic after a few days of lurking here.
