Such a fun week living in Palo Alto Downtown!
- Rain or shine, I rode the Marguerite Shuttle (X, Y)
- I walked and talked with Stanford students, athletes, staff, and professors on campus daily.
- My Favorite Lunch? Jimmy V's Sports Cafe - the Roasted Chicken Special - a student favorite
- The breakfast burrito (chorizo) was the best value in all of Palo Alto - yes, I sampled many meals (ranging from $18 to $80).

Somehow, we managed a minor miracle. Fitting ~400 LEADers on the CEMEX auditorium stage!
Assembling this international body of GSB cohorts together for the first time in 4 years was prolific.

June 2006: my great tennis privilege of playing at Stanford University for Coach.

" Shoe Dog" is my prescribed GSB prerequisite reading!
It became my business travel anthem.
May this book inspire you to dream, to fly, to grow!

From Stanford LEAD to Pickleball Startup
In Spring 2021, along with Stanford LEAD, I simultaneously became part-owner and ambassador advisor to TopCourt.com (an EdTech startup). From each of my 9 executive business courses, I added my small contributions to the startup, growing it from seed to sun.
Now featured on Pickleball.com - the multi-sport platform helps grow the fastest-growing sport in America (along with the MLP / PPA league and pro tour). Join me, Mark Cuban, and the pickle club!
