Being a designer can be a tough thing by itself! I have found that one of the most frustrating (and freeing) things about it is that it is truly a healthy mix of intuition, subjectivity, and principle. But not everyone can make the cut, and not everyone is meant to be a designer specifically in [...]

I love this idea. Good World Creative is essentially a collaboration of creative individuals, businesses and nonprofits propelling the world forward through quality design, photography and brand. What it appears to be is an opportunity to donate your time, resources, and talents to help NPO (Non Profit Orgs) with their specific business needs.

I’m all for making “online” easier and more manageable. I know there are a few “purists” out there (heck, I graduated with a lot of them) that try to keep web development out of the hands of so-called tourists, but I’m not that arrogant. Or, at least I hope I’m not… I think it is [...]

He recently published a presentation he gave [...]

I’ve found that I’m personally the most productive in the super-early mornings and that my productivity takes a serious nosedive the later it gets in [...]

Painfully-funny and yet it happens all the time. Defining the client’s specifications for a project, design, or a product well will save you tons of hassle down the road. Right?

I would definitely define a part of what I do as freelancing in the ministry segment and space – it’s a different life and it’s fun (and challenging) to mix up the demands of non-profits and other small businesses while considering the spiritual side of things. Our needs from a technological perspective aren’t that much [...]
