I’m in NYC from now till Friday night. Managing contacts isn’t my strong suit. I meet way too many wonderful people. But if you want to meet up this week, email, DM or text me—as long as either (a) we’ve hung out either online or IRL (including office hours), or (b) you’re someone I’d know or have heard of anyway.
