big, big BIG updates....

Shamefully, nearly a 2.5 months have passed since I have last posted.
It's been a busy time.... lots of different weather, lots of travels.  Although, unfortunately, not to very exotic places.  (yet)

Classes have ended and summer break has begun.  In fact, it's been going for a while.  This summer, I've been working hard to redesign and coordinate a national art supply store's website.  It's been a pretty epic task- a project that just gets bigger and bigger every time we get closer to being finished.

Probably the biggest news in my life is that this fall I will begin as an Assistant Professor at SUNY Potsdam.  (although, this may be considered "old news" as it's been public knowledge since early May)
My specific focus will be in their foundations program-- in 3d Design/Foundations.  To put it lightly, I'm over the moon with excitement and I feel very fortunate to have been offered such an amazing position.

I've found a dreamy apartment along the riverfront and I'll be moving in early August.
until then, I'll be wrapping up my job at the art store on Thursday... then jumping around Maine and  traveling to exotic, relaxing locations (I really enjoy being "off the grid"), and then to Boston for a concert co-headlined by two of my favorite singers (Josh Ritter and Brandi Carlile).

With less than two weeks left before I move, it's really starting to set in.  I'm really going to miss living in Maine.  Every night, I can smell the salt water and hear the fog horns from my house.   With mountains, lakes, and the ocean, Maine was simply meant to be enjoyed.  And that I did.
