Closing out 2025 with my favorite project.
Print media forever! ❤️🔥 At
@adobe MAX I was thrilled and humbled to introduce a special edition I’d been working on over the last few months with the Community team to celebrate creativity and innovation: Now & Next: A Zine About Creative Work.
When I was in high school, sneaking into the copy room during study hall to print issues of my tiny lil hand-collaged zine, I never dreamed of a moment like this (and to hold these print artifacts in my hands still feels surreal). A limited edited run, the zines were only available at MAX and featured cover art by illustrator Gemma O’Brien (

Inside is:
🌳 The story of
@mightyoakgrows , the animation studio that grew from a cramped Brooklyn apartment to a recent Emmy win
🧠 Insights from a former NYTimes art director and SVA MFA co-founder Steven Heller on the future of creative careers
