The Story Of The Story Of Ferdinand

Written for a study abroad program. One of my favorite clients and it was always a pleasure to write for them. 


If you have children or have ever been a child you’re probably very familiar with the story of Ferdinand The Bull or as the book is properly titled, The Story of Ferdinand.

Celebrate The Running Of The Bulls

Conexus International is a study abroad client. I love writing this blog. 

Does this sound like fun? Stand in the street with thousands of your closest friends. You sing a song to Saint Fermin for a while. A rocket shoots into the sky and a dozen fairly confused, excited, and ill-mannered bulls come roaring down the street directly toward you. You run frantically in front of them to avoid being gored, tramples or mashed like a bug against the buildings that line the ever-narrowing street.

Santiago Calavatra: Architect, Builder, Artist

Written for Conexus International, a study abroad program. 

It’s not often that an architect is an engineer nor an engineer an architect. Unless you’re Santiago Calavatra. The Spanish born architect/sculptor/engineer is being honored with an exhibition at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg. This is the first exhibit at the Russian landmark to honor a contemporary artist and Calavatra is considered to be one of the world’s most gifted visionaries. The show is aptly titled Santiago Calavatra: The Quest for Movement, and it is a testament to an artist who truly does incorporate movement and grace into all of his creations.
