Sarah Kay’s TED Talks
I think expression is important. It’s not secret that how much I value the arts. It’s more than something to look at or read, no matter how superficial something like…a blog post…might seem. It’s time, energy, and introspection. Even if it’s not meaningful to you, the observer, the process of creating it sheds light on…
Charles S. Anderson lecture & Control Master
Last week was another doozy. I barely had my computer for most of it, which is pretty atypical. As you may have seen my metaphorically prancing about on social media outlets, last week I had the good fortune to attend a lecture by Charles S. Anderson through AIGA Colorado. I first heard about him…

And if you couldn’t tell by all the sticky notes peeking out in this picture, I liked it quite a bit. Heaven knows I don’t need anything help being even more idealistic. But surprise, I read it…
5: Things I would do all of the time
…if the current rules of time did not exist. 01. Read all of the books that I’ve ever even kind of thought about reading all day long.
