Hi!
Hi, I’m Ardan Michael Blum, originally from Geneva, Switzerland, now calling Palo Alto home. In 2016, I founded A. Blum Localization Services, a Palo Alto SEO company focused on helping businesses strengthen their online presence. I’m passionate about technology, reading, and politics (mainly center-left views). I love hiking, spending quality time with my Dachshunds, playing the cello, and writing fiction.
