Hey guys!I haven’t made some personal announcements in a while,...



Hey guys!

I haven’t made some personal announcements in a while, but this one is a pretty exciting one not to share (well, at least for me :D)!

This (grey) kiddo is moving to San Francisco this weekend! I accepted a pretty awesome designer job and I’m looking forward to this amazing experience.

In case you’re in SF and would like to hang out, grab a beer or attend concerts, exhibitions or any other interesting event + you need a company, feel free to reach out (through inbox or chat) - I would love to meet new people with similar interests!

Also, I will be announcing some exciting new updates about TDB soon, so keep following on any of the social channels:
