🥳Happy New Year🙏 2022 was a blessing in spite of it’s (emotional) curveballs or maybe because of it’s curveballs. Either way, the review is always about embracing what worked and understanding how to (be) (do) better. 2023 I’m looking at you w/ no resolutions just ‘the knowing’ that it will be better, always...because “bad shit happens, but good shit happens too.” #2023 #happynewyear #goals❤️ #bebettereveryday #growthmindset #stayhumble #choicechallenge

In and out of Walter Reed. In and out of McGuire. It’s the internal battles you work a lifetime to contain. And sometimes a cap is your personal truth. Honor and thanks to our vets. #veteransday #heroes #veterans #dysfunctionalveterans

My dearest @livwhitbeck you WILL make history because you were raised by it, you met it - learning to connect who you are and  who you will become. You levitate! Thanks @gloriasteinem @zainabsalbi and @alexginsberg66 and all who identify as women for being ‘history’ for us all.

Fandom is not my thing but art + humanity is. And when we reach each other in that ‘space’ we let our guards down to make room for connection + possibility. Giancarlo is an extraordinary human, artist, and actor...and @yankees fan. Hopefully a @jakeanddean fan

Afghan refugee. 

“There are currently more than 2.6 million registered refugees in the world from Afghanistan – more than one in ten of all refugees, and the second highest number after Syria. There are many more who haven’t been registered or who are currently asylum-seekers.” Amnesty International. 
Perspective is everything.

Roberto Clemente was the first coaster I made for @jakeanddean nostalgic design. It had to be. His selfless drive to help others and commitment to social justice was impenetrable.
