Resume of a Restless Soul: A Journey Back to Self

I never intended to write a memoir.

But after a sudden, life-shattering medical event pulled me inches from the edge of death, I felt compelled to leave more behind than a trail of half-finished spreadsheets, early-morning routines, and the familiar image of the dad who made breakfast and mowed the lawn on Saturdays. I wanted my wife, my sons, and the people who ever crossed my path to understand the winding, unconventional, often ridiculous road that shaped me.

Resume of a Restless Soul traces a journey that rarely followed the expected route. From youthful wanderings on Martha's Vineyard, to years spent navigating private estates, kitchens, and corporate boardrooms, to the dizzying chaos of a midnight widow-maker heart attack that left doctors racing and my life suspended in a single breath, this book is both an honest confession and a testament to reinvention.

I write with equal parts humility and humor - because life has never hesitated to hand me both. There are missteps, detours, and a few spectacular collisions with fate. There are chapters of ambition, burnout, and the quiet unraveling that happens when a title becomes your identity. And then there is the rebuilding: letting go of corporate armor, rediscovering curiosity, and learning how to be a better husband, father, mentor, and human.

At its heart, this book is an invitation - to anyone who has ever questioned who they are becoming, or wondered whether it's too late to change course. It's a reminder that every life, even an ordinary one, can be extraordinary when examined with honesty, gratitude, and a willingness to start again.

If you have ever felt restless, out of place, or on the brink of transformation, Resume of a Restless Soul might just feel like home.
