🧠
I went back to college and got a Bachelors of Science in Psychology.
🎨
Minored in Visual Arts to honor my younger self.
📊
Became a Behavior Specialist, used Applied Behavior Analytics to shape behaviors of children diagnosed with Autism.
😷
The world changed a lot, shifted my life a bit.
👨🏻‍🍼
Raised my first born as a work-from-home dad.
👨🏻‍💻
Started a full-service digital design agency, failed a lot and learned a ton.
✍️
Had 2 more kids and now homeschool all 3 of them with my favorite wife. (she's my only wife)
⚡️
Now, I still shape behaviors, only digitally, as a User Experience Designer.
