Current Projects...
Due to the current times and uncertainty of our near future, I have projects in a "holding pattern" and awaiting a signal from "command central" to re-direct my energy and re-launch. I do, however, have some project ideas brewing and percolating that I feel are beginning to manifest, and I am seeking partnerships and alliances to co-create and collaborate with.
