Injustice, massive class division, general suffering. There is room for improvement and everyone knows that we can do better. If you look around and you don't like the world you see, remember that society is an ever-evolving construct. Pick an issue and get engaged.
A place where I evolve my thoughts.
An always open Zoom meeting. I'll get a notice when you enter it and will join you if I'm free.
While working on a few VR ideas I made a bunch of friends and every so often we make little games together.

Misc. Projects
In 2011, I co-founded a company with my good friend Austein Ganoe to allow people, mostly teen girls, to create unique photo-friendship bracelets using their personal images to share with their friends.
A youthful and fun expression of love and tribe; we registered over 100k user accounts, grew a thriving community of over 200k social media followers and sold 120k+ bracelets worldwide. Personal day-to-day included product design, marketing strategy, brand development, financial and operations management.
