Where are you from?
I’m from outside of Chicago originally. I moved back to Chicago six months ago and have been living in Bucktown since then. Come up here and I’ll show you around

Who do you work for? 
I won’t bore you with the details of my nine to five. After the day job it’s The Joneses. 

What are your Current Project(s)? 
I’m mainly focused on The Joneses at the moment. I’m trying to make it into something worth while that people are excited to be a part of. Outside of that, creating the perfect ice cube.

Who would you love to work with?
Wes Anderson, Richard Branson, and the Tumbleweed Tiny House Company

If you had to give all your sneakers away to charity except for one pair, which ones would you keep? 
My white vans seem to be the most versatile shoe I own. So the white vans.

What’s on your iPod right now?
Bill Withers, James Brown, David Bowie, Billy Joel, Chromeo, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and whatever is new on Kitschworth.

What’s your Favorite ATL food?
Highland Bakery

What’s your Favorite ATL hangout?
Standard and El Bar

What are your Pet Peeves?
One of my biggest pet peeves is people with bad manners. One of our tees from this season was a social commentary on the gradual disappearance of manners. I’m by no means an expert so if you notice something let me know. 

Shout outs?
Atlanta. I know that’s cliché but without the support from Atlanta in last year or so the Joneses most likely wouldn’t exist. I owe a lot of thanks to many people down there. The city feels like a second home and I’m always excited when I know a new trip is on the horizon. Thanks for making that the case. EC keep up the good work and thanks for letting me be a part of the blog.
