Three months ago, I ditched my blog and went all-in on Medium.

Do you think there's got to be a better way to blog? I sure did.

Why Medium and Why Now

My goal is to share helpful insights through short, focused articles. Medium seemed like the perfect fit—it attracts an audience that embraces that kind of content, and it's easy to engage with the community. Plus, it was just easy to dive in and start writing. Now that I've got my feet wet, I'm ready to share what I've learned.
