Hello!! Gonna kick things off with a collection of illustrations I've done over the past years. I feel like I haven't drawn anything personal in quite a while, but I still draw things every now and then. (mostly I am hiding in the shadows doing biz dev and meetings)

The Steam Animal Fest is here, and we’re kicking off our Meet the Castaways series with the first reveal from our community poll!
Meet Pavo the Peacock!
Pavo would probably ruffle some feathers to learn he placed last in the popularity poll...but that does mean he gets the first reveal 💅✨

Just finished watching the new Fantastic Four…is the general consensus that it would have been better paced as a TV series?

Wanted to share my pen and pencil stationary haul from Japan, since I’ve been greatly enjoying the Uni-Ball pens and fountain pens. I even got a refillable glass nib pen???

🧡🎃QRP your Pumpkin Art!🎃🧡
Unfortunately, I've lost most of my art to computer meltdowns over the years, but I found this one I posted...5 YEARS ago! Time to make some new pumpkin art this year I think.

I don’t really post much on Bluesky about my personal travels (mostly work) but please enjoy some of the memorable drinks I’ve had so far in Japan! Can’t wait to draw some of these later ☺️
