This week has been another busy week at the office. Right now, my office is outdoors on the lawn of Barnsdall Art Park with a fantastic view of the San Gabriel Mountains in the distance. Earlier in the week, I worked on top of a peak in Griffith Park and spotted two coyotes on my way into work.

 

As a consultant, my work tools are a phone, laptop and internet connection. When I’m not meeting with clients, I often decide to take my office mobile (with the help of a laptop shade, camping chair and wireless connection).

 

Oftentimes, I find myself working in the local mountains or by the beach. Sometimes, I decide to work in underutilized public spaces like traffic medians, or along the banks of the LA River or Ballona Creek. The other day, I was working by the tarpits at LACMA, and ran into an old friend who is a professional photographer, Elon Schoenholz, who snapped the picture of me below.

 

Through my work and where I choose to work, I’ve deepened my connection to Los Angeles. Technology, strangely enough, has enabled me to spend more time outdoors enjoying nature and the city.
