I have been working at 20nine now for about two months. One of the first things I noticed about the ad agency was how young all the employees were. It made sense once I asked how the company got its name. Apparently the CEO was 29 years old when…

As promised in a recent post, I am now introducing Twelve Fluid Ounces. Twelve Fluid Ounces is a project started by a good friend of mine, Illustrator/designer Brandt Imhoff.
