It Lives!

I am proud to announce that the new Trypnotik Visual is now live and direct, at long last.  The story of it’s rebirth is long, and boring.  I was planning on writing a drawn-out, cheer-leading hooray all about how excited you are for me, and how this new Web site is going to change your life for the better.  I got to the end of the second sentence and realized that i had nothing to write about, and even if I did it would be the most dull string of lies that has ever been strung since the other guy from Wham tried picking up dudes in bars.

The future is way too uncertain for me to feel comfortable shaking my pom-pons at it.  I do however, have a specific issue regarding higher education.Continue reading →

I began exploring social media when I was throwing warehouse parties in Boston.  There were two email lists; Boston Raves, and later Ian Scott started the Boston Parties mailing list.  Boston Parties became wildly popular right out of the box, and the subscribers created a very strong, and loyal underground.  All we had to do was send out one Boston Parties email with event details, and we had more guests then we knew what to do with… but those are stories for another blog.Continue reading →

The Perfect Job

All I want to do is work on the Internet, for some type of small to medium sized business. I don’t have any office experience besides Name.com, and I don’t know a lot about job titles and what they mean.
With my experience, what types of jobs should I be looking for?

Good Morning Future

Welcome to the first post in a new blog.  The sky is pretty much the limit for this puppy.  I am not going to attempt to pigeonhole this project, but it is not my intention to make this a completely personal blog either.  The goal of this project is to document my career progress.  A brief history of what brought me to this point can be found by clicking the biography link in the menu above.
