No long post. Just an overdue announcement.

Earlier this month, before all of our worlds became unlike we’ve ever experienced, my family welcomed a baby girl. She is my second daughter, my fragile warrior, my source of unbridled smiles and marbly eyes.

I plan to write more about this new chapter of my life, and particularly how it has fused with my career at this time of global uncertainty. For now, here is a snapshot of a glowing daughter and an overjoyed dada, thankful for every blessing this world provides.
