I love photography. I also love all kinds of gadgets and am always looking for new ones. Too often, I will buy a gadget and only use it once or twice. Lumoid lets me try equipment and (coming soon) gadgets without having to purchase and then lets me apply part of my rental payment to the price if I buy the item. It’s the best of all. I have an ownership interest in Lumoid.

Big fan of what Bevel and Tristan are building

Healthy eating is important to me and to my family. It would be great if we had a sustainable source of healthy food down the street – but we don’t. But for meat from trusted family farms, there is AgLocal. They have a subscription price model that works.

Circa News is specifically designed and written for mobile devices. If you are on the go and want to keep up with world events, Circa is for you. Following the stories you want to follow could not be easier.

If you have a dog you love, get a Whistle! It’s an amazing activity tracker for dogs that is really something special. It provides useful and interesting data on your dog’s daily activity that you can track through the Whistle app. Whistle’s next generation device will have a GPS location tracker too! I have an investment in Whistle.

In New York City – and most urban areas – space is at a premium. Many use self-storage facilities to manage their space needs. Unfortunately, self-storage is typically a horrible experience. MakeSpace takes the pain out of the self-storage experience in every way. Self storage made easy and pleasant. I have an investment in MakeSpace.

This is a GREAT marketplace for graphic and logo design. I’ve had the logos of two of my businesses designed there. Easy to use and incredibly high quality work for very accessible cost. I recommend this to anyone needing design work.

I think Storefront is an incredible idea. I travel a good deal of the time and see empty retail spaces wherever I go. Storefront connects the empty spaces to those who could use the space immediately, without the long term commitment. It’s like an Airbnb for retail space.

Being a busy professional with a busy professional wife and an active child in New York City takes a lot of energy. Postmates is a real life saver when we need something delivered or picked up in a hurry.

I wear orthotics occasionally and I think that this company may be onto a key trend in footwear and possibly other areas. Using 3D printing and a simple app, they are customizing the inside of any shoe. Right now – for medical and comfort reasons. Tomorrow – for performance? We’ll see. Mass customization is here.

I love wine (mostly in the off season!). I enjoy tasting it and learning all I can about it. Vivino is an easy to use app that helps me keep track of my thoughts on various wines as well as learn what wines my friends like or don’t.
