The start of fall is here and so is my personal end of year
(EOY). A lot has changed since I turned 25 but overall it’s been a good. I
learned a lot, made new friends, and invested heavily in a number of “personal infrastructure”
projects. I’m using this post to pause and reflect on my 25th year. Check
back next week for an EOY post focused on ambitions and goals for my 26th
year. Stay tuned, cheers!
