Dad in Progress

Musings on the ups and downs of figuring out how to best use what little free time I have to be a great dad

About Me

My Photo
Name: dadinprogress
Location: Avon, Connecticut, United States

In the working world for 11 years, married for 9, a Dad for over 6 years. I graduated Lehigh University with a double major in English and political science with the intention of becoming a lawyer, and here I am working in the land of LEGO bricks as head of North American brand communications. But don't worry, I'm not here to sell you bricks, just to share my experiences and readings on the subject of kids today and their working parents. Note: my musings are not reflective of company opinion or position, and the contents herein are not sponsored or endorsed by the LEGO Group. Everything here is my personal opinion and is not read or approved before it is posted.
