I’m a serial founder, developer, fitness devotee, transplant recipient, and bilingual.
I currently do development work for a stealth-mode startup in the Bay Area while working remotely in Korea. I’m fortunate enough to be listed as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Ignite Innovators in Seoul.
I’m @LSwank on Twitter, where I say whatever is on my mind, generally unfiltered.
I write about health and fitness, design thinking, software architecture, intercultural competence, and time/energy management.
