Mentoring is one of my favourite things that I do as a senior IC. A lot of people assume only managers get to mentor, but that's definitely not the case.

The TSA Canine 2024 Calendar will make your day - www.tsa.gov/sites/defaul...
It has bios for every dog and marks their birthdays 😭

The Blackberry movie was pretty darn good!

Don't you just love it when a plan falls into place?

I have definitely been in meetings that a void would be perfect for!

Me and a few of my favourite coworkers wrote about what it means to lead as a Principal Designer: adobe.design/stories/our-...

Brown brindle and white dog with ears flopping in slightly different directions looking down at the camera with his tongue out.

Light brown and white dog sitting and turning to smile at the camera with her tongue out.

I haven't shared any of these in a while, so here are two of my favs from this week's shelter dog photoshoot:

Brown and white dog with a brown nose tilting his head slightly and smiling with his tongue out.

One of my favs from last week's shelter dog photoshoot. Ambrose was a very happy model!

They definitely go fast! It’s a design retrospective kind of story, so I want to show as much of the work as possible.

25 slides for a 5 min presentation? I might be overdoing it.

The Bear is some of the most stressful TV I’ve ever watched, but in the best way.

I write a lot of comments to myself in design files. I assume this is totally normal.

Aw, thanks! I love working with the pups and you're right, the photos really do help.
Such a cute face on your doggo!

My favourite shot from last week's shelter dog photoshoot. A surprise squeaker can get you some really funny looks!

Yeah! I think they really nailed it.

It's been a while since I read them, so for the first few episodes I kept thinking "I don't remember that happening" the whole time. I figured it out eventually though.

Finally got around to watching The Peripheral TV series. It's pretty different from the book, but I really like the costume designs for the future fashion.

My fav shot from this week's shelter dog photoshoot. Top notch dog modeling skills here!

Started my day in the circle of travel hell known as flying Spirit out of Newark. It was a dark dark place, but I made it home and things can only go up from here.

Two of my favs from this week's shelter pup photoshoot: (and on sky blue this week.)

Exactly! And they feel so much shadier in this context.

Very related: Maybe don't opt me into an onslaught of marketing emails as part of the credit freezing process?

Panic froze my credit at all three bureaus last night. It was not a fun task.
Loved how that involved filling out some of the most awkward form design I've ever seen while under a whole lot of stress.

Yay! Love her work so much.

Light brown pit bull mix with perky ears holding a green stuffed alligator toy in his mouth and looking directly at the camera.

Most demanding model I've worked with yet. Refused to be photographed without his alligator and ate all my cheese!

Got to spend a big chunk of today animating things and listening to music. It was delightful.

Talked about this cake at great length at the gym this morning because most of my baking friends are also gym friends. One of them has the recipe. We now have a mission to recreate this cake for ourselves.

ConvergeUS was such a great time yesterday! Huge thanks to Michelle
and Zeroheight for all their hard work putting it together. So many lovely folks, great talks, and an amazing small conference vibe! ❤️

Already on my way home but adding that to my list for next time! It’s important to get good treats on every visit.
