My work moves between branch operations, public service, local events, websites, photography, art, and music. All with the same goal: bring people together to accomplish great things.

Useful systems.

These projects are where the operations brain and creative brain shake hands in a dimly lit room. Some are polished sites, some are prototypes, and some are strange machines built to solve a very specific problem.
