This is my thing.

Graphic promoting my portfolio site:

I believe design is for everyone.
Embedded in all my work, whether mental health information for youth, or banner artwork for soccer, is an intent to create a space where all can see ourselves and feel we belong.

With over 25 years in the design industry, I have developed a wide range of skills including print production and management, graphic design, layout and typesetting, content creation for social media, and hand-painted artwork.

For a full overview of my experience, please check my resumé linked above.

I’ve had this on my phone since 2014. Was kind of hoping to use it last night. Alas…
Sad soccerroo.

I have used this in poster art though. (Well before Banner Factory.)

This is true leadership.

You don’t stomp on the downtrodden and rejected.

You raise them the hell up.

Hope is alive.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

When you’re watching the #CanMNT game and @raccooncitysg.bsky.social fires up the drone. 🤦🏻

You know, you want to support things but come on.

Reminder that this business and its owner have continuously acted and financed legislation against our community, spreading misinformation and attempting to play underserved populations against each other as they try to mask their actions.

So fuck that.

I see from CNN that Canada’s economy is in “crisis”.

A word of unsolicited advice to everyone: don’t believe a single word any US media says about Canada. None. They don’t know shit about us and they don’t care.

It’s in the US’ interest to describe us as being in crisis. Not ours.

Hahaha! Nicely put.

Yeah, let’s not pretend that PP wouldn’t be completely eviscerated.

Though he and orange could spend their whole time going rhyming double speak and doing nothing constructive.

Pretty much!
We should send you next time. In full regalia. It would probably impress. 😂

I don’t often feel sorry for our PM, but hooooo boy.

I could never keep my mouth shut. (Also, never plan to be a politician.)
