Adam Waxman’s Evergreen Thoughts
An inside look into what I'm reading and thinking about. Expect:
⚪️ Brevity: It will be skimmable in seconds, and readable in minutes
🧠 Variety: My mind is messy and my interests are diverse

About Me
I work at the intersection of design, product, and strategy at SeatGeek. Outside of work my happy place is a quiet coffee shop with a good book. Check out my personal website for more details.
