Join me for the ride!

In Playing the Long Game, I write about my journey as a creator and my existentialist quest for doing the right thing. It’s part of my system to make sense of the world, get better at work and life, and become a better human.

From my personal lens, I’ll delve into topics as diverse as business, strategy, design, software development, marketing, education, health, philosophy, ethics, and any other thing that might prove relevant at some point.

No more than once a week, I’ll share what I’m working on and send you the best of what I find, learn, and build along the way.

I promise to keep it worthy of your attention.

I’ll never spam you. You've got my word. You’ll be able to unsubscribe at any time by just clicking the link you’ll find in the footer of my emails.

Still, not sure? If you want to see what kind of emails you'll receive, please take a look at the Playing the Long Game archive and explore past episodes.
