Retired operations director, community builder, amateur chef, and lover of well-told stories.
After three decades in retail and logistics, I traded corporate boardrooms for pro-bono consulting and community theater. Now, I apply my disciplined approach to budgeting and process improvement to help local nonprofits and small firms grow.
My days are a balanced rhythm of sailing the Raritan Bay, hiking the Palisades, and experimenting with Japanese-American fusion dishes—all while fostering a harmonious neighborhood spirit.
Input tide height, channel depth, and keel draft to compute safe clearance for the Raritan Bay. Grounded in NOAA Station 8518750.
