Ship List 2010
no responses - Posted 01.12.11

Seth Godin asks “What did you Ship in 2010?” In his excellent post he encourages you to write down everything you shipped over the last year. Not ideas or half finished projects. Only things that got out the door and actually happened. Because, that’s all that matters. Ideas don’t matter. Starting doesn’t matter. Finishing matters. [...]

Hell of a month.
no responses - Posted 11.08.10

Well, after Halloween is now over, and from a partying stint this past Saturday… I can officially say I am ready for hibernation. I have had far too many drunken conversations with friends of mine to feel anything but embarrassment about being such an idiot.  Today, I was awoken by mind- blowing stupidity provided by [...]

Jane of all Trades. (Sort of)
no responses - Posted 09.29.10

I think it is very important to know a little bit about everything. Which is why most of the time, even though I work mostly on my computer, I like to learn how to do some random things occasionally. I know, making butter in a mason jar is something kindergarteners do. But hell, I wanted [...]

no responses - Posted 09.09.10

Well, I guess it’s that time of year again… Fall. It’s weird, growing up I always hated Fall- it’s when school started and summer ended. Now, as a grown up, I don’t really like summer all that much (too much day drinking and air conditioning bills). After the last 3 years of awesome Halloween Parties, [...]

So, most of you already know, if you are lucky enough to be annoyed by me all day on Facebook, that I am playing roller derby. I figured since I was always playing contact sports in high school, and that I’m pretty much just an angry bitch most of the time, that I would benefit [...]

Commercial on The Emmy’s
no responses - Posted 08.22.10

I did these commercials for an online medical record hosting site, MyMedicalRecords.com. I shot, directed, edited, and did the graphics for these. I’m pretty proud of them. One of them aired on The Emmy’s a few months ago, and it was excited for me, to say the least. Can I just say that I FUCKING LOVE my [...]

New Online Portfolio
no responses - Posted 08.22.10

My original portfolio was Flash, and since the creation of the iPhone, and it’s amazing cousin, the iPad, Flash has since become obsolete.
