Hi there, I am back once again. While busy with work and my Mas­ters Degree, I had to let this blog go. As you know the rest of life creeps in and you have to choose what takes pri­or­ity. As much as I loved the idea of speak­ing … Read More →

I wanted to con­grat­u­late Mar­duk Hag­g­wood for putting together the FIT BFA show for Pho­tog­ra­phy.  This was the sec­ond show that Mar­duk over­saw and I am really look­ing for­ward to work­ing with him on devel­op­ing the new FIT parcels. The stu­dents had a great time, many in SL … Read More →
