You haven't heard? I mean, it's all over the news! (...in Dallas. ...two days ago.) You can catch me for about 3 seconds midway through the story doing the very mundane first step of taping off paint boundaries for my blackboard project.

Backstory: I submitted a design to the contest with The Better Block . I was selected as a finalist to come to their event in Texas and build the project. Winners were already chosen by judges that day, but you can still vote for your favorites for the People's Choice award. Link here: https://bit.ly/4eBshaT

Teams from across the country are in Dallas’ Thanksgiving Square testing designs to combat loneliness and create connections.

Pretty happy to say my design for this contest got selected as a top 10 finalist and I get to go out to Dallas to build it as a part of this urban development project with Better Block. There will also be a judging to determine the top 3 projects. More details to come. Wish me luck!

Working on this for a customer. Actually had nothing to do with Memorial Day, but it seemed like an appropriate post to share today even though it isn't 100% done.
