Thanks to those who supported my week off. It’s pretty amazing that some of you are paying attention and even reached out in support of the break. In a little nod to the season, I’d like to share a few links to my friends and colleagues who create cool things that you all may enjoy. […]
Totally random but here is an unordered list of the shows & movies that I’ve been enjoying lately. These often have a creative slant, but sometimes it’s simply a great story or characters: Reservation Dogs, The Bear (especially season 2, episode 7), Shrinking, Severance, The Killer, Asteroid City, and one from the classics The Wire.

I debated, once again, taking this week off. Again, nope–I’ve got a set of links for you all. At this point, in the home stretch of 2023, I may as well push through. If you only check out one link this week, click on Living Switches. Animation Scott Pilgrim Takes OffGoing back to the characters […]
Last week was a whirlwind. I was at the Clarity Conference in SF. I’ve been to this many times and it’s my favorite design event of the year. This is definitive now that the Behance event, 99U is no longer a thing. If you care about design systems, accessibility, or how to scale your digital […]

I’ve been finding time to do this (the mini variety) and it’s been really nice to focus on personal things. Luckily, I work with some awesome people who keep the […]
Humans are strangely affected by numbers, patterns, chords, and repetition. We gravitate towards them like moths to a light. We can’t look away. We seek them out in chaos. We constantly try to bring some logic to the thousands of data points in our vision. We want things to make sense, to see the system […]
Time continues to sneak up on me. I have a personal deadline in 15 days. I’ve thought a lot about what I intend to make, but reality is coming at me fast. Procrastination is there. Other responsibilities take priority. Excuses are many. I’ve got to get my ass in gear–wish me luck. Web Design/UX/UI The […]
