About Me

I'm a design geek. My favorite sans serif is Frutiger and my favorite serif is Mrs. Eaves.

I love music.

I am a caffeine addict.

I have lots of things I want to do, and I need to become one of those people that is good at having 1,000 projects going at once.

Right now I am trying to get become a better designer. That's hard work.
