About Robert Takashi Gibson
After 25+ years of holding senior and executive leadership positions in several highly regulated and/or technically oriented companies, I have embarked in a new and exciting chapter-one that focuses on my lifelong passion for cars, the thrill of driving, travel, and creativity.Through chat_n_sip, I am exploring the world through an automotive enthusiast\'s perspective: the design and basis for great vehicles, the enjoyment of traveling by cars, planes, and other modes of transportation, and appreciating the stories that connect them.My background in continuous improvement, and process excellence still motivates me-just in a different direction. Currently, I am engrossed in learning, storytelling, and sharing reflections of life after a long (and intensive) corporate career.An admitted pursuer of a well-lived life-and a well-sorted car-contentment and happiness is embodied in creativity, achievement, and an exuberant journey along the way.
