When I’m not working on projects for clients, I experiment with my own.

I made these gold stickers as a celebration and critique of the city I love when Trump came to town to visit Elon. You can buy one at MakeAustinWeirdAga.in.

The world needs more love, so start with yourself. I made a series of valentines for people to send to themselves. You can see them all at SelfValentine.com.

“A little love, period.” is a concept I came up with during James Victore’s poster workshop.

I created a line of Good Riddance party hats for New Year’s Eve and The Daily Dot made this video about them.

Permanent140.com started as a joke turning digital tweets in physical works of art. Until twitter sent me a cease and desist letter. But then they hired me for their corporate events. The project went viral with posts on The Independent, Swiss Miss, the Side Hustle School podcast, and lots more. It was also honored by The Webby Awards.

My first art show explored the theme "Use Your Fear As Fuel" where I displayed 100 things I’m afraid of and then set them on fire. Attendees were also invited to burn their greatest fear.

I helped organize a conference for over 200 people from around the globe. The CreativeMornings Summit was three days of inspiring speakers and workshops — with an open-hearted community learning from and celebrating one another.

After the Kindle launched, I sold eBook Safes that hid them inside of real books. They were featured by The New York Times and Gizmodo.

Thanks to a successful Kickstarter, Passive Aggressive Notepads can solve your most annoying problems.

I created this Valentine’s Day Card for people who don't like Valentine's Day.

I wrote a poem each day for 100 days. And 5% of them are pretty good.

For five years, I wrote an advertising blog called Ask A Copywriter, where I shared what I liked about ads that I saw as I went about my day.

In 2005, I sold everything I owned on eBay. AllMyLifeForSale.net examined how identity is shaped by objects and brands. By telling the story of each item and selling it to the highest bidder, its true emotional and financial value was discovered. Pieces of my life were scattered from North Carolina to South Korea.

The project also attracted media attention from as far as Croatia and Israel.

I like to play in the intersection of words and commerce.
