I walked out of the local market, and found a great surprise—another classic car owner had parked up right next to me in an empty lot

Super cool to see a ’64 LR2 Land Rover (pre Defender) in person

And I got to meet the guy as he came out and nerd out

I dunno if this sounds fucked up, but for the first time in 3 years I feel like I have found things worth living for; worth making; worth cultivating

I felt like I lost my identity when I was laid off from InVision in 2020 when their business failed and Figma captured the market and it took a toll

I’m in the market for a new Product Designer job!

I’m looking:
🤠 for rad folks who like shipping software that I can work with for years to come
🔮 to continuously learn & stretch in new ways
📐 to design tools—design/dev/collab/internal, at small or big companies

Gonna visit SF for the first time since 2017 for Figma’s Config conference this summer. I’ll be there June 20–24.

Strange how so many years went by while I was building a life in NYC + the pandemic.

Feel like I should be skeeting more, but I am too busy making and learning new things I don’t feel like I have much to say.

It’s a season of observation.
