What I'm doing now

This is my Now Page, which is updated regularly and gives you a glimpse into what I'm actually doing now. Here's the inspiration behind it.

🤙 Building my "portfolio career"

As I've built Hello Generalist to increase flexibility in the work world, I've become increasingly excited about the named concept of a "portfolio career," one where you have several streams of income, instead of one. I'm spending more time thinking about, talking to people about, and writing about this path. 

Here's what's currently in my portfolio:

• HG makes up most of my income, and takes up about 80% of my working time each week.
  
• I coach operations leaders, which takes up another 10% of my working time each week.
• (Mostly) Passively, I make monthly income from real estate investments.
• Looking ahead, I'm curious about how writing and posting online might drive income and help me spread my work more broadly. I'm giving about 10% of my time exploring this bit.

👫 Enjoying London after moving from San Francisco in 2024

After more than 10 years in San Francisco, Sanket and I moved to London in February 2024. Sanket is Co-Founder and CTO of Fleek, and just closed their Series A. He's spent the first 2 years of the company's life managing teams across the UK and Asia remotely from SF — the 5am wake up calls and 11pm team meetings are finally coming to an end for him. We're settling in, and exploring our new town. Stoked for this new adventure.

2024 was truly the year of travel, and 2025 is looking to be the same — perks of living on this side of the world. Here's the running list of where I've been, or am going next this year: London, Edinburgh, Dubai, Jaipur, Bangalore, Kashmir, Copenhagen, Dublin, Barcelona, Athens & the Sardonic Islands, New York, Orlando, Washington DC, San Francisco, Bangkok, and Chiang Mai. It's seriously wild to write all of that out. 

🏘 Wrapping up Condo Conversion in San Francisco

In 2021, Sanket and I along with 2 friends bought a duplex in San Francisco with the goal to convert the building into condos. It's been an incredible education on how city permitting and planning works. We're currently in the last few months of the process — now that we're done with physical construction requirements, we're filing applications and new maps with the city, working with lawyers, and getting ready to wrap this project up.
