With the 2021 baseball season finally wrapped up I wanted to drop some of the work I did for the season. Not the end result any of us in the building wanted or expected but proud of the work we did and proud of the small part I played in all of it.
Today is my last w/ the Padres. 2 years ago I arrived not knowing what to expect but ready to do whatever I needed to help & be a part of something great. The on field product didn’t match what was coming out of the creative room but I believe we accomplished that original goal.
Proud of our WBB uni rollouts for the season. 6 sets designed by
@JesseWuCreative
& brought to life by a 3 person squad that includes our Digital media prod Jas,
@itsjoshan
& myself. Lots of collaboration & buy-in from both players & coaches helped make these a success.

Collage summary of my '21 season in a nutshell; felt right w/ all the spotify wrapped posts goin around lol. Pushed myself a lot more this year & while I have much to improve & work on, being in a place creatively where I feel more comfortable is a great place to be in.
All star campaign push comes to a close w/ the 4 being sent off. Lots of planning & anticipation behind it all & a full team effort getting it done. Also goes without say but most of the work done on the front end thanks to the crispy camera work of

I remember being excited to see a couple hundred of my game programs being printed & handed out at CBU basketball games. Fast forward to tonight I’ll be seeing around 30k of these distributed at a Major League Baseball game for fans to take home. Never in a million years.

Michael got in his own way as a player/GM. Office shoulda won easily w/ a lineup of Jim / Dwight / Michael / Kevin / Phyllis instead he trots out Ryan/Stanley who prove to be liabilities on both ends of the floor. Game never shoulda ended in a flagrant personal intentional foul.
One of the greatest honors of my professional career has been covering this years squad. 1 season has really been 2 years of brainstorming, planning, & creating to tell the story of this team & these players as best we can. Hell of a run & excited for what’s next.

My time at CBU is coming to an end. No words can say what CBU has meant to me in my development as a creator, a man & in my faith. It has been an honor to represent our student athletes utilizing a skillset that at one point years ago I felt I was wasting my time trying to learn.
Late on sharing these but pretty cool getting to see some of our

Creating in 2020 hasn't been easy but was able to do just that for my good friends at CBU Basketball. Media day photography as well as producing easy to swap templates for in-house use. Thank goodness basketball is back haha

Preciate all the work these guys do in bringing us together; being in a room full of people who just “get it” is always a great refresher & resetter for us all. Being able to tell a little bit of my story is also a cool bonus (still can’t believe I wore blue of all days smh)

so 4/1/21 will hold a special place in my mind but I imagine that holds true for many of us. Best of luck & can’t wait to see the fruit of all our efforts today & throughout the season.
I turn 30 tomorrow. A lot to say & express that I'm not sure how to but after a particularly uneasy 29th I'm excited to ring in my 3rd decade feeling refreshed & better than when I entered my 2nd. Blessed to have the ppl I have around me, & grateful for everything along the way.
Different kind of opening day this year, but glad to have been a part of it. (Was able to see a few of my creations as well; shout-out

Senior Banquet tonight! Was tasked w/ generating collateral for event including individual posters, athlete slides; award announcements & print material which pushed total to mid 200s & 1 angry computer. Love that I get to create for our students & this amazing program.

The coolest & most thoughtful gift I've ever received. My incredibly talented gf who I've encouraged to continue painting secretly spent a month recreating my Lakers Championship graphic from scratch. Still utterly speechless and completely surprised while smiling ear to ear.
