I have been busy on many projects recently. What is great is I am ready to share them and the new things I’ve learned with Thesis and WordPress. My two most recent projects made me push my personal envelope of what I thought was possible within the WordPress/Thesis environment. Not that I’ve ever had any [...]

Time to Reflect. You’re soaking in it.

April 1, 2010

In today’s information overloaded, fast paced, digital lifestyle there can be little opportunity to pause and reflect.
