About Robert Raines
I'm a senior advisor in Chevron's strategic research group.

I'm a dad, husband, son, amateur photographer and videographer, folk music lover, 4-chord guitarist, and coffee geek, not in any particular order. Always curious, I'm a chronic learner ready for the next adventure. This site represents my personal thoughts, opinions and ramblings.Connect With Me
