Astromono was my personal playground to test new ideas and flex creative muscles that would otherwise lay dormant.

I started Astromono as a video game news blog in December 2006 and kept it going consistently for over 5 years until it evolved into other creative endeavors. Thanks to this project, I was able to travel around the world, attend video game events both big and small, and explore different modes of expression like podcasts, frame by frame animation and even lettering. Eventually I turned it into a modestly successful YouTube channel.

The project is now over as I transition to new ideas but it remains one of the proudest achievements of my career.
