Lessons from Planet Argon Junior Developers
27 Feb 2014
Planet Argon hired two Epicodus graduates as junior Ruby on Rails developers: Abby Smalls and Ana Tighe. I took some time to sit down with them and see how things are going so far.

I Survived the Company Picnic and All I Got was this Lousy T-Shirt
6 Sep 2013
I received the honor to design this year’s company picnic t-shirt. Of course, the first thing I thought was “Oh crap, I draw and make art outside of work all the time, but in my happy little sketchbook that no one has to see. Now I actually need to follow through with an illustration that people would actually want to wear?? Pressure is on…” Hmmm. What to do, what to do?
Remembering Our Mentors
4 Sep 2013
Having our recent 14 year old intern, James, got us thinking about the people our team looked up to in the early stages. I asked some of the folks here in the studio to think a little bit about the people who were inspirations and guides to them throughout their lives and/or careers.
