Relaunch your life in retirement with The Rockettman, a retirement lifestyle blog by Gregg Rockett

A dynamic hospitality professional with over 40 years of experience focusing on international hospitality tourism and real estate, I am currently refocusing my efforts on academia. My new "relaunched" life will embrace the life balance I have strived for, including interests and hobbies, over the course of my career.

This retirement blog is devoted to leveraging interests - past and future - and I invite you to partner with me in this journey. Hopefully this retirement lifestyle blog inspires you to "rewire" in a similar way. Let's relaunch together!
