I spent the better part of this weekend recoding my website.
I feel like it’s finally worthy of marketing my skills to the world. I suppose I’ve always been very careful about what work I put out there and how it’s presented. I chalk it up to my personality, which is generally careful and reserved.

I’m no longer a Monster.
Well, technically, I’m a Monster for life, but I will no longer be a 9-5’er. It’s been a wild ride working for Monster Cable. I haven’t mentioned it on this blog very much, if at all, partly because my goal was to create a retreat within Tumblr. Something that could turn down the nonsense just a bit.
