I believe design can make the world a little fairer, a little easier, and a little better for someone.

Thoughts

Design is diligence.

The little things matter, especially the ones no one notices.

National park fanatic

12 down.

I never skip the visitor center. I want the history, the stamp, the maps, and apparently, all the merch.

Thoughts

Everything needs context.

Things make a lot more sense when you understand what led to them.

I run

Currently doing Couch to 5K. Seeing myself get a little better with every run is what keeps me going.

I create art

Sometimes. Currently, it’s paint by numbers.

  • A painting of two figures on a rooftop under a full moon.
  • A painting.
  • A pen drawing of two pairs of eyes.
  • A painted mountain reflected in a still lake.

I write

Articles, poems, and observations about things I can’t stop thinking about.

On loop, currently and always
