Thoughts on design, pop culture, parenthood, and how they all collide in my life.
Kraven The Hunter and retconning established characters for movies
Kraven The Hunter is a Marvel villain whose sole reason for existing is to hunt and kill the biggest and most dangerous game. His obsession leads him to hunt and eventually kill Spider-Man in Kraven's Last Hunt. He's decidedly a lousy guy and one of the few villains...
Amazon and Comixology collide with disastrous design results
Digital comic book lovers are in a very justifiable tizzy. Amazon and ComiXology are now one. Actually, let me be more colorful. Amazon ate ComiXology and pooped out a crApp that currently pales compared to the original ComiXology experience. User digital comic book...
Animal Crossing: New Horizons Update stole my ideas!
Not really, but totally did. At the height of Animal Crossing: New Horizons' popularity in 2020, I found the product lacking in features. The longevity of the game was in question by fans since you couldn't really interact with all the items within the game. Not to...
A Work In Progress – Doing Muscles
2020 was a good-for-nothing hellscape of madness. But in every dark time, there are good things to celebrate. During quarantine I created Doing Muscles, a fitness motivation brand that allowed me to channel my anxieties into exercise, charity T-Shirt designs, and...

Helvetica Now has rekindled my love of the classic Typeface
I have always avoided using Helvetica due to its ubiquitous nature. It's literally everywhere. That's all thanks to its clean design and ability to work pretty much anywhere. From Verizon, to Jeep, to New York subway signage, Helvetica is a known quantity. I normally...
WWE ratings are bad, but there is hope in the Network
WWE ratings are bad. They have resorted to cutting back on Youtube content to drive fans to watch the shows live. In the age of streaming and digital content, it is counterproductive to lean so heavily into delivering your programming on cable tv. Currently, you can...
Bray Wyatt is the Creepy Mr. Rogers and I’m In
For the uninitiated, Bray Wyatt is am amazing creative talent in the WWE. He returned on WWE RAW this past Monday after a lengthy hiatus (he became a daddy!). Bray's return is enough to draw some groans from fans. Not because they don't like Bray. Quite the opposite,...
A creative career as a Sneakerhead
Countless (unless there is a sneaker census I know nothing about) men and women, young and old, would consider themselves a "Sneakerhead." Also known as a person fully engrossed in sneaker culture. I knew a man who walked with old Metro Cards in his shows to keep the...
