“Branding and collateral for a liquor store that focuses on personal service and local community. Collateral includes business cards, promotional posters, coozies, coasters, and packaging for sampler packs. Sections of the six pack can be torn off, turning it into a four pack or two pack. This ensures a longer lifetime for the packaging and increases the portability of the beer case as well. The cases were made with recycled materials, soy-based inks, and zero adhesives in order to lower the environmental footprint.”

I stumbled into design on accident and have been hooked ever since. The intersection of communication and creativity really energizes me and pushes me forward. I ground my work in strong conceptual thinking and an attention to detail. I have a passion for building brands and accept as much freelance as I can manage while focusing on my studies.

Please think of me like an endangered species and just observe me quietly from far away,” he said. “If you try to talk to me or touch me casually, I may get intimidated and bite you. So please be careful.

I would love to sit down next to @haruki_murakami and read books quietly

After finishing my last semester of university (carefully planned to be a study abroad), I holed myself up in a one-room apartment in Bangkok, a city chosen mostly because it was easy to be isolated in. And I read. Like an invalid stuck in a hospital bed watches television, so I read—from the moment I awoke, clutching my book as I fell asleep on a thin mat, surrounded by the sounds of heat, and dishes being washed on a balcony.

Psyched one of my favorite curmudgeons is penning his hacker-videographer-traveler insights on @Medium. Go Alaric!

You’re Never Going to Write that Novel

Alaric, my co-founder for Imagist, has recently taken to Medium. It’s the first platform that’s gotten him to write again as he’s more inclined towards long form. I’m super happy to see it.  As someone who works in technology, we feed off creativity from all parts of our lives, and the best products come from our inspirations that oftentimes flash in the horizon far from our comfort zone.

Without us knowing it - while Alaric was hacking it as a writer in Bangkok, I was a few hundred miles away, trying to hack it as a writer in Hanoi. Both of us came to technology haphazardly  - both found inspiration in the writer-heroes of our youth and aspired to be storytellers - and both of us continue to chase that dream, to be narrative weavers, in our current work of commits and pixels.

I’m excited to be working on Imagist with Alaric. We started as friends interested in traveling and foraging and biking.  I’ve found that our differences have complemented our work, but more important, our similar motivations and passions have made getting up and working an everyday joy.
