You've seen me on zoom, you've seen me at art openings and startup pitches and riding my bike around town. You've seen me in comic shops and art supply stores. Maybe you've been to a drink & draw party I've hosted, and probably at my mom and dad's house once or twice.

I've done two more series of Startup Cat for subsequent shows at Fishcake. I'll post them at a later date!

If there’s anything to be learned here, it’s got something to do with the fact that I wanted to start this post with “Guess what”

I realize this account is new, and I’m running the risk of people thinking this a cooking account, or a health food account, or something like that.
