Jason Curry
Freelance creative with 15+ years of experience, I'm a Jason of all trades, a master of overwhelmingly mediocre jokes (clearly), and enjoy making things. More under the "About" section to get to know me ... if you're into that sort of thing.

ABOUT ME (if you somehow made it this far)
A glimpse into how I've spent most of my free time over the years.
Snowboarding
Some of the times I didn't fall [and hurt myself], plus a feel for my general maturity level.
Goalkeeping
The refs decided I was so bad with my feet that I can just use my hands.
Shirts-ing
My cousin Phill and I started this for shirts n' giggles. If you like that pun, I wrote it. If not, he did.
I am secretly proud of the branding, prouder of abandoning our social page within days of starting it, and proudest of making approximately $5 per job.
