New Year, New Life.

I don't write much, in fact it's one of the most self-conscience and taxing activities for me.

However it's also one I have always wished I did more of, and practiced. My sense of grammar and story-telling is very limited due to the lack of writing I do.

With 2014 arriving in such a profound way, I will try and make an attempt and finally start logging my life experiences and sharing, at least to those who care, what I am about and what I like. This blog is an attempt to share my interests of Design, Spirituality and life in general. Something I feel is important to pass on to the next generation, especially your children.

That being said, this is my main motivation to write - Brittany (my partner) is pregnant and we will be expecting our first child come September. I am nervous, scared, excited and overwhelmed-all at the same time.

This  was the news of the year, although it came on New Year's Eve-eve. 2014 pretty much is going to follow in the shadow and be a stepping stone for bringing in this new life.

Several events happened in 2013 that I did want to note before I got the news that will change my life forever. These were:

  1. In Feb I got my first full-time "office job" at an e-commerce business as a Jr.Graphic Designer.
  2. Moved to a slightly larger apartment in Midtown,Sacramento. 
  3. Received many new contacts and designed many new brands for various
    Organizations & Political campaigns.
  4. Received several awards and recognitions on my work as a student at SCC.
  5. Was invited to participate in LOGOLOUNGE, an invite i couldn't pursue until this year.
  6. Met many new and wonderful Meditation Teachers and Authors through a non-profit meditation group i started 2 years ago. Unfortunately it has just been dissolved.

 

Anyway, I will really attempt to keep this updated. One of my favorite Designers, Aaron Draplin does a nearly daily blog, and although it's not always an extensive post it is consistent and to me that's more important.

Sacramento Born and raised,David has been in the world of design since the early 2000's and having worked in the various fields of graphic design, his passion comes from his interest in seeing how everything is connected, his personal brand that he often refers to with his freelance work under the moniker ANGRYCITY – a translation of his family's last name.


The idea that everything is interconnected and has a history is where he pulls most of his inspiration, design is about learning on how to solve problems and give viable solutions, much of the time this solution is much closer than it may seem. He lives and works in the ever-growing city of Sacramento, Ca. with his partner in life, his daughter and his two amazing dogs.
