Trade is often discussed in abstract terms—flows, volumes, markets—but behind it are very physical systems: ports, ships, warehouses, and the people coordinating them.
Tri-Stone Trade Publications is a personal project focused on understanding those systems from two angles:
- — a historical perspective, especially maritime trade
- — present-day experience working in international logistics
Featured Focus Areas
Writing & Research
Essays and notes on maritime history, trade networks, and overlooked corners of global logistics.
Projects & Archival Work
Ongoing involvement with maritime history initiatives, including work connected to the China Maritime Museum and independent research projects.
Trade & Industry Observations
Reflections drawn from day-to-day work in Pacific trade—how sourcing decisions, shipping constraints, and geography shape real markets.
Featured Publication
J. B. Stetson: The Story of a Ship
An account of the nearly three decade life of a West Coast steam ship, chronicling her history from the man for whom she was named to her adventures under numerous owners and finally her wreck off the coast of Monterey, California, in 1934.
View on AmazonAlongside this work, I am professionally active in international shipping, working with businesses across the Pacific Islands—from Tahiti to the Marshall Islands—where supply chains are long, complex, and essential to everyday life.
