For whatever reason I seem to fall face-first into odd, unexpected text wrapping issues more often than I’d like.

For the last couple months I’ve been developing a kid’s web design tutorial series for Tuts+, Tuts+ Town. There are eleven tutorials total and a couple of them were published recently and will continue to throughout June.

I wrote a post over at Lincoln Loop recently on using SVG sprites as an icon system: SVG Sprites and Icon Systems Are Super. The post was a response to an email I received asking about how to use a lot of SVG icons and be able to change their colors with CSS, but also not have all that markup that goes along with inline SVG.

Yesterday I co-hosted Philadelphia’s first CodePen meetup with GDI Philly. The event was sponsored by Lincoln Loop, catered by Caffienation, and took place at City CoHo. All of these forces came together to form what I will now be referring to as the Coolest CodePen Collaboration of 2015 (Triple C 15).

As with almost all things in this field that initially approach, JavaScript was (is) really intimidating.
