Whether a plane to Singapore, a subway in Manhattan, or the streets of Cincinnati, I search for meaningful conversation wherever I may travel. Without it, I believe we lose the ability to not only understand others, but more importantly, ourselves.

Because CoEd's doing incredible work in Guatemala so how can I not #tieoneon?

There's nothing better than live music. It's raw energy, and raw energy feeds the soul.

I like a basic uniform for guys. Steve Jobs is my fashion icon, because he wears the same outfit every day. If you always wear the same thing, you make a statement. Then put a bow tie on and really stand out.

If you're passionate about life, and you love what you do, you learn how to organize yourself and switch your various sides on and off.

When you wear a bow tie, doors open for you. Your posture is a little more erect; your shoulders are a little further back; your style is a little more dynamic. It's about the reestablishment of the gentleman.

When it all boils down, its about embracing each others stories and maybe even finding that synergy to collaborate for the common good.
