Fluent Flyers – New Website Launch
It’s been a long, long time, but I’m back for an update (one of many to come)! Today, my friend Vince (read about him in this entry) and his brother, Oliver, launched their t-shirt shop, Fluent Flyers. I had a great time programming it, and am so excited to finally [...]
23 Things I have learned in my life so far

Europe and Egypt in Photos
After a few weeks since returning from my Spring backpack trip (list of cities) I finally found some time to gather a set of my favorite photos.

I draw a lot when on coffee breaks, days out in LA or Santa Barbara, when traveling, etc. So I’ll have to thank whoever this man is for being my subject on his (what must have been) usual study night at the local coffee spot. (Also, just a note, he [...]
