As the new year is approaching and we are working on creating resolutions, I like to reflect on the year and ponder the lessons and overall themes learned. One thought kept coming to mind, and I wanted to share the story behind my recent eviction of two words from my vocabulary. “I’m sorry.” I decided […]
Tonight, I crossed an intersection of understanding; realizing span in which I’ve traveled – the long road ahead towards a tomorrow of change. As humans, we often develop an air of entitlement and charge; boldly taking ground with our steel-toed boots and ambitions. As such new beings of consciousness, we fail to realize the ground […]

One of my favorite terms in the world of design is the word ‘restraint’. I first heard the term in 2010 while working with an incredibly talented industrial designer. As with design, life often emulates the art we view in museums. Sometimes ‘less is more’ can be a simpler way of experiencing life the way they […]
