Writing

My writing has been published at HuffPost and on the website of the World Economic Forum, and I have given interviews to numerous media outlets. I am currently writing a book-length memoir of my experience as a social entrepreneur, including my key lessons for finding and following your mission. Contact me regarding writing engagements.
