About Me

Sacramento, California, United States
I have spent many years working at the intersection of politics, government and business. I was a corporate VP, a city councilmember and staffer to elected and appointed officials. In many ways I am the sum of those I have worked for and with-- my first bosses in life were with the Oakland Raiders, where at age 15 I worked for Al Davis, John Madden and Ron Wolf. From them I learned about focus, preparation and loyalty. At KQED Tony Tiano taught me how to motivate staff and the good that comes when success is shared across the organization. Crown Media is where I reported to Rod Thole, the hardest worker I've ever met and a man of uncompromising integrity. I try everyday to be more like him. I have been married for more than 25 years to Colleen Gilbride-- the luckiest meeting of my life. Together we have two kids-- Cara an LA sales rep and Conor a Marine Corp Corporal.

Luigi Macluso RIP

He was 62 when he died in his sleep on October 26.  He was an architect, a race car driver and a businessman that revitalized the watch brand Girard-Perreagaux.  He was most responsible for bring back mechanical watches when everyone thought quartz watches would render everything that came before it obsolete.

He developed watches for Ferrari and Formula 1 as well as the designers Zegna and Boucheron.  Someday, I will own a GP.
