Rocky Mountain High

It’s been a little hectic this quarter, my 8th quarter at Portfolio Center. I’ve been buried deep in work, and hadn’t had much excitement or room to breathe.

About two weeks ago, P.C. was asking to submit mini-books. I already had one put together from back in the day (about 5 months ago) when Mason asked me to put one together. The book came in handy when I had two offers in one week, taking the internship with the brilliant people at Armchair Media.

I sent in the book, and about a week later, I got a call from Crispin Porter + Bugolsky. They want me to spend 3 months in Boulder, Colorado for an internship. They were impressed with my interactive work. I guess Big Smelly Robot won them over, though that project is far from done. They also said that Hank said some good things about me. Who would have thought?

The catch: Not only will I be staying around P.C. an extra quarter (in spirit), I have to start in about a week and a half. My last day at Armchair is Thursday, and I’m leaving for Colorado Friday morning, with a brief stop in Texas. (It adds about 5 hours on to my time on the road, but I have to see the person that made this all possible.)

So, over the next few weeks, I will be chronicling my strange journey across three time-zones and tons of cows on the side of the road.
