Earlier this year, I took a journey to Tijuana, Mexico, to visit an orphanage operated by the Corazon De Vida Foundation. The trip was an incredible opportunity to spend time with the 93 children who lived at the orphanage, as well as get to know the donors and workers who gave freely to help make […]
Two years ago, I was sitting on my couch in Dallas, wondering what the next chapter of my life would contain. I was anticipating a trip to NYC, followed by a new opportunity in San Francisco. I had been self-employed for 8 years, and was well accustomed to the unknown. This time around, it felt […]

It’s been a while since I’ve written a product review/suggestion. This is related to the ceasing of my old binge-purchase habits through Amazon. It’s been a few years since I crossed the 350+ orders per year threshold. Nowadays, I look for products and services that solve immediate problems in my life, with simple designs, pricing, […]

Holding one of the envelopes, I shook the package and listened to the small seeds rattle in […]
explaining the #resistance A few weeks ago, I was chatting with my older sister, Lydia, who asked me to write a blog explaining what ‘resistance’ means to me as the motivation behind designing shirts. I’ve been designing and selling shirts for over five years. The first shirts were sold in Texas, at local Pride Festivals, […]
I am the problem. It doesn’t take much sense to see the outside world and realize there’s something very, very wrong with our reality. Over 100 years have been spent preaching the virtues of capitalism, yet I have yet to see a world that exudes its supposed virtues with equality, fairness, and equal opportunity. Earlier […]
“It’s a beautiful day, Sister J.” “Every day is a beautiful day, Aaron.” This is a blog I hoped I wouldn’t have to write, but knew the day would someday come. Writing these words feels like a piece of my heart is being broken, because it is. Earlier this afternoon, I received word that Sister […]
