What I’m reading right now – March 2019

When I was younger, it was a tool to learn, a tool to imagine and a tool to get lost in worlds that people more brilliant than me constructed.

How I got into modelling

Recently I had the opportunity to be a guest on the Open Roll Podcast hosted and created by my friend Jurgen Rudolph. I met Jurgen in an old shack in the hills of Costa Rica where he was on the annual extended vacation he takes, presumably, to reset his system.
