That's me on the right with my friend who convinced me to join Steemit, @mckeown12. When he told me that there was a community built around cryptocurrency while fostering innovation and ideas worth promoting, I was sold!

I'm a creative type, residing in Minneapolis. I work as a graphic designer at an investment firm here in the city. I've lived in Minnesota my whole life, having grew up in a small town to the north and graduated from the University of Minnesota Duluth in 2014.

The obligatory list of things that I'm into that you can count on me posting about: graphic design, digital art, photography, music, politics, race, ethnicity, Christianity, travels, social media, technology, and adventures in making side income.

Tonight, I'm working on t-shirt designs for a friend's shop. I would be willing to share the designs eventually! I also want to take some time tonight to get back into Blender – earlier this year, I taught myself how to do some 3D modeling with Blender, but lately other responsibilities took over. Interestingly, as I was learning how to use the software, I allowed myself to become distracted by my desire to create retro, Tron-esque, abstract landscapes. Here's an example!

Would you guys like to see me post art like this in the future? Who digs the style? Let me know!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to posting more about myself and my interests, as well as getting to know the community and rallying around great stories and ideas.

Cheers!
