I seem to have successfully navigated my first week at the Gates Foundation and am making progress in deciphering the alphabet soup of acronyms, understanding the strategy and systems and most importantly, making friends. Today's highlight was meeting CEO Sue Desmond-Hellmann in the elevator on the way back from lunch. I've also made plans for dinner next week with Cristina and chamber music on Sunday with Deputy Director Chris, who gave me CDs of chamber music by his composer friend Joel Hoffman who writes beautifully for cello.
