Hi! I’m Keri.

I’m a designer of stuff, mom of boys, connoisseur of hot sauce, fan of Disney/Pixar, gardener of veggies, collector of collections, catcher of Pokemon, and follower of Jesus. I love to infuse creativity, fun, and competition into every aspect of life. Hope you enjoy the posts on this blog. If you find yourself thinking “this is the stuff I like to do too,” drop me a line—I always welcome friends as crazy as me.

I want to be your friend
