Portfolio: Anthony Colfelt If I ever teach anything to anybody about IA, IXD, or UX, it will be to honor Anthony Colfelt. Anthony mentored me at Classmates.com and at Myfamily.com. He’s been a great friend, guide, teacher, ass kicker and secret weapon for me for a long time. I lean on his lessons daily, both [...]
“Along the way, his writing will outstrip his reportage. And as his inability to come up with anything new to say about this country builds, his prose will grow more complex, emotive, gothic, desperate, overheated and nebulous until finally, about two-thirds of the way through, there will be a prose-poem of pure meaninglessness as his [...]
Portfolio: Moish Brenman I met Moish in 2005, or maybe 06? Either way, I instantly had respect for the dude. He was straightforward, dedicated to his craft in a way that was shame-making for everybody else in the room. Which is why he didn’t stay long in SEA. He went back home where he could [...]
Writing: Frosting and Fire My mother always liked to remind me that she was the first woman in my life. Actually she likes to remind whomever I’m dating, and to avoid the wrath of any would-be gods, I go along with it. However, there’s the reality your mother made for you and the reality you [...]

She’s smart, driven, a great host and cook, has introduced me to some pretty important people in recent history, and has been a font of positivity and balance [...]
Personal Blog: My Little Apartment Dean Fisher is top 10 one of the most significant people in my life. My history. She’s made me proud to have known her. She’s become a enjoyable reader/blogger, a smart, informed and insightful jack-of-all-things-entertainment/design. I can’t say anything about her that’s going to make you like her more than [...]
Personal Blog: Boy Wonder Robin Sherwood. His name goes at the beginning of the sentence. Put him on the short list. Robin was a huge force when we first worked together, and he was THE force in our most recent endeavor. His blog doesn’t get updated because I think he’s more INTO life than into [...]
Personal Blog: The Bergmans Eric Bergman was my super at my last job, and super he was. I leaned on him a great deal, and learned a great deal from that exerience. His blog is pretty exclusively about his exploding family. He cares a lot about his family, and I’m pretty sure he brought that [...]
