So let’s get to it. Keep with the plan and stay focused. Try and see the bigger picture. Try and envision the full circle strategy and approach. And most importantly, have fun.

Personally, these past couple months have taken quite the turn, with an overall feeling of uncertainty.  And to put it out there, my recent Full-Time position as Brand Manager for the Jabbawockeez has reverted back to a consultant role.  I look at this a couple of different ways..

1. I had the greatest opportunity to be the best I could for an incredible and inspiring brand, and made a significant and positive impact on the way their daily business was handled.

2. Nothing is forever, and though the brand is currently unable to sustain me as a full-time creative specifically for them, it has opened up many doors for me.

3. With the uncertainty, kicks in the survival instinct, and I’m now forced to really figure things out… and what better way to start the year, than to have the opportunity of REALLY making this happen.

Whatever “this” is… we’ll soon find out.  And really, the potential is all laid out, to piece together.

Currently faced with a new phase of my career.  The photo may or may not reflect what is to come.  But if there’s anything I can say about my current journey, is that even though I may not feel prepared, that in fact I truly am.  “Step Up If You Wanna Get Hurt” is about testing yourself, and intentionally making mistakes, so that you learn faster.

We wrapped up this project a couple weeks ago.. Huge shout to Paul for hooking the animation on this project.. Well done sir!
