About Jeffrey Baumgartner
I have had the pleasure to live a much varied life. Over the years, and in approximately chronological order, I have been an infant, a child, a student, a teacher, an artist, a copywriter, an entrepreneur, a magazine columnist, an author of four books, a keynote speaker and, most importantly a father of two awesome sons (incidentally, we were each born in a different continent). They are grown up now. One is a mathematician. One is an AI engineer. Both are brighter than me, I am proud to say.
I have lived and worked in six countries on three continents -- making me a serial immigrant.
I have learned and been inspired by each of the places I have lived. I have travelled widely for business and pleasure.
Along the way, I have seen a lot, learned a lot and have been inspired by so many remarkable people in so many different places.
It is these inspirations that have fuelled my overactive imagination and, for no particular reason, I would like to share some of my thoughts with you.
Now, I live in Belgium mostly. My partner, Ira, lives here part time an in the Netherlands part time and on the road with me often.
Ira has been immensely helpful in creating this bloggy web site: giving me feedback on ideas, editing, providing artwork and being wonderfully encouraging.
