Just a Chicago guy juggling fatherhood and bachelorhood. An old trading floor broker now rolling in Chet the Ford Lemon, living by the river.

The “Chalkboard” is my daily post, scribbled on the blackboard in my kitchen—a ritual, a bit of therapy, and a small win to start the day. All Chalkheads are welcome to ride along.
