ABOUT ME

Just a glimpse at how I’ve tried to counteract sitting at a desk over the years.








Snowboarding

The reason I fell... in love with making videos in the first place. Plus a general feel for my maturity level.








Goalkeeping

The refs decided I was so bad with my feet that I could just use my hands. Son tan amables así.








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 immediately, and proudest of being in the red since day one.
