Adventures in Bourbon: Aging Part 1
If you know me at all, you would know that I am passionate about bourbon. I’ve spent a lot of time learning about the distilling process and even visited Bourbon Country a few times. I loved going to each distillery and learning how they make their brand unique and create the variety of flavors that…

Cleveland’s Natural History Museum in Black and White
We visited the Natural History Museum in Cleveland this past weekend. I put myself up to a challenge – take pictures using a different device than I normally do. I ended up on using my Essential PH-1 and only used the monochrome sensor on the camera. It picked some great detail (especially for a mobile…

What to bring to Dreamforce, 2019 Edition
Dreamforce (Salesforce’s annual conference) is rapidly approaching! I’ve been asked by a few people about what should they bring and what they should be aware about. Since I’ve been to Dreamforce 4 times so far (5th time this year), I do have a pretty good idea of what to expect 🙂 I’m quite a gearhead…

Throwback Thursday: NASA Glenn #nasasocial event
So while this is a #throwbackthursday post, I actually forgot to write about this event earlier in the year (due to having a busy summer with Obvious Coffee). So, I will write about the awesome experience I had at NASA Glenn…now. Back in March, I was one of roughly ~20 or so people invited to…

Droning Around at Patterson Fruit Farms
A couple of weeks ago we all went out to Patterson Fruit Farms in Chesterland, Ohio for their Fall Fun Fest. We also needed to get pumpkins for Halloween, so thankfully they had those there as well. What I didn’t realize was how much fun stuff they had for kids! They had 2 corn mazes,…

Extra Life 2019
Extra Life 2019 is in the books! I’ve raised over $2,200 this year (as of this writing) and I am SO CLOSE to raising $10,000 through the Extra Life program. This is my sixth year raising money for the kids. I played plenty of games this year and even had Cooper join me for some…

NASA Social at the 70th IAC
I was fortunate enough to attend the NASA social at the 70th International Astronautical Congress in Washington, D.C. this year. The IAC as they call it is held in different places every year (next year it’s in Dubai) and it is where private companies and governments get together to talk about space. So basically a…

Cleveland Indians game in a Box!
Surprisingly this wasn’t my first time in a box at Progressive Field…but it was for Cooper and Jules! On the 14th of September, we all went to Progressive Field to watch the game in a box. Jules’ parents paid for a box and invite us + Dayna + their friends. We all had a blast…

Virginia Beach Trip, August 2019
This summer we went to Virginia Beach (Sandbridge, specifically) with some of our close friends from college/Baltimore area. We had an absolute blast that week both on the beach and out back in the pool. On the way back, we stopped at Lake Anna and took a boat ride. I took a ton of photos…

The Who LIVE at Blossom
This month (September) I got to see one of the coolest band in person. The Who had their farewell tour this year and I was able to get $25 tickets through a T-Mobile deal (which was sweet) while Jason and I were walking out of the Smashing Pumpkins concert*. They were even better in person…

Smashing Pumpkins at Blossom Music Center, 8/19/19
I recently saw High Flying Birds (Liam Galleger’s new band) and the Smashing Pumpkins at Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio with my buddy Jason Allen. It was a rocking concert – I brought my 360 camera on my Essential PH-1 to record some of the songs on video. Check them out below!

Learning Procreate with Apple
Did you know that Apple offers free classes? They do! These topics can range from how to set up your iPhone to open studio “Office Hours” around projects you are working on. I got an email about a few classes that were happening a couple of weeks ago. One of the classes stood out to…

What’s in my Bag: Google I/O 2017 Edition
Hi there! It’s been a while, I know. Life has been pretty crazy the last few months. Don’t worry, I’m still here. — Fun fact: I applied to Google I/O this year and actually got in. So, of course, I am going (woo!) and bringing along a slightly different kit than I normally do to…

Some 2016 Updates
I’ve been lazy on the blog front in 2016 for a variety of reasons, some more important than others. (See: newborn) However, I do have some stuff that I have been working on that is “shareable” that you hopefully will see the results of later this year. Local Guides Summit Evernote Community Leader Program Extra…

Golden Birthday Month (30 on the 30th)
While I’m not saying this is because of my Golden Birthday month, it would be cool. Everything that happened this September (this list is pretty insane and not all inclusive): Apple launches the iPhone 6s/6s+, and releases the New OSX update on the 30th Google launches the Nexus 5x & 6P, new Chromecasts + Chromecast…

What to bring to Dreamforce
Well, if you told me in 2010 that I would be attending Dreamforce 4 times in row (2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015), I would have called you crazy. However, over the last 4 conferences, I have learned quite a bit about what plan, pack, and do to make one of the most intense weeks of…
