Who am I?

I'm a designer, a photographer, a consultant, a college student, a skiier, a net native, a theatre fanboy, and an Australian (if living there for three years counts). Here's some articles about me.

I have a coworking space in Downtown Bryan called The Creative Space, where I'm working on Erickson Media Group, Activist Apparel, and a few other projects.

I'm also one of the founders of the BIL Conference, a free unconference run in conjunction with TED.

You can also find me on flickr, twitter, facebook, del.icio.us, LinkedIn, Natuba, Upcoming.org, and Netflix.

Coursevote Officially Released!

Today I’m officially releasing Coursevote. It went live Sunday and since then I’ve had about 20 of my friends test it out. I’ve made most of the major UI changes, but there’s still a few things left to do.

Read the full launch post at the Coursevote Blog. I won’t talk too much about Coursevote on my blog. I hate it when people only talk about their product - that’s what product blogs are for. But please subscribe to the Coursevote RSS feed if you’re interested in it.

My first goal is to get 1000 users. Right now I have 20 beta testers, so I’m 2% there. If you’re on facebook, click the big button at the top to get to it. If you’re not on the Texas A&M Network, it’s going to be pretty empty. Each network gets a different Coursevote (UT students aren’t interested in A&M classes). But you can check out some of the screenshots at the Coursevote blog to see it in action.
