I love the theory that if a city attracts you, it’s because there is something waiting for you, and your story there has already been written.

The best way to get what you want is to
mess around,
try things out,

I disappear sometimes.
It's nothing personal.

A lesson I wish I learned earlier in life:
Last month, I finished teaching at Indiana University.
After a powerful run mentoring young designers, I’m returning to practice in Philly.
The classroom gave me perspective, purpose, and creative joy.
But I never lost my love for building.
Now I’m bringing that fresh energy back to design.

3 weeks of cleaning house, getting rid of junk, and reminiscing about the past 5 years.
Today the movers are coming.
This whole thing taught me one thing...
make it a habit to purge the house every year.
The struggle is real 😅

I'm not in competition with anyone.
I'm proud of how far I've come.
The journey I'm on is personal.
It's me vs who I used to be vs who I'm trying to be.
My advice... don't give a crap about what others think.

Reading rewires your brain.
Why?
The act of reading pushes past your comfort zone.
It helps you grow and crave for more.
To read well is to think well.
Watch how you change when you start reading more.
You'll be more thoughtful, chattier, and naturally, more interesting.

So I got my sh*t together.
23 years later my dog is living it up with a full tummy.
