Finally Got My Foot In The Door…

Added on: January 5th, 2010 | No Comments »

I’ve got some great news people, I have officially started my new job at WAX Partnership, here in Calgary, AB.  WAX is an amazing award-winning design agency that is looking to expand into the digital realm and have hired me as their first digital developer.

I’m incredibly lucky to be able to work with this amazingly talented group of people, and I can’t wait to work on some amazing projects. Thanks to everyone for helping me get here, the teachers at SAIT, everybody at Snowboarder Magazine, and finally all my friends and family.  You can read a great article about WAX in an back-dated issue of Applied Arts.

I just wanted to say Thank You!” to Snowboarder Magazine for being so god-damn awesome. I was flipping through the latest December issue, which just hit newstands, and noticed something.

Hey, that guy is me! So everybody needs to go out and grab a copy, not because I’m in it, but because it’s a radical issue.  And again Snowboarder, THANK YOU.

That's me!

That's me!

Return to Thunderdome

With all the kids starting back at school, the summer has finally come to a close.  If it weren’t for the numerous snowboard video premieres coming in the next few weeks, I’d probably be bummed.  But I’m not.  Soon the sky’s will turn grey and the clouds will unleash that beautiful white fluffy powder, and snowboard season will be here.

I’m really looking forward to a good winter.  Having completed my internship with Snowboarder Magazine, I am back from California.  It was an incredible opportunity to redesign and rebuild Snowboarder’s website from scratch.  I learnt an incredible amount in the 8 weeks of design and development, and am looking forward to continuing development on their site! The guys at the mag are a great group of people, and so HUGE shoutouts to everybody back there in Cali!

Since being back for almost 3 weeks, I’ve only spent 2 nights in my own bed.  For some reason, I’ve decided to travel throughout the interior of British Columbia and elsewhere. I kind of feel like Mad Max, hence the post title. I’ve also been spending some time in Vancouver and have really taken to this city. I’m going to do my best to actually move out here and spend at least a year on the coast.  The fact that the ocean and the mountains are so close is incredible, and I don’t want to miss the opportunity to experience the city.  And speaking of ocean’s I leave you with a pic of me learning to Wake-Surf.  It’s not really an ocean, its just Shuswap Lake, but enjoy nonetheless.
