What a week! But this video was definitely a highlight. I was asked to produce it by our Director of Teaching & Learning, who saw a similar one done by a neighboring school. So on the first day of school, she and an assistant teacher took pictures and sent them to me (I only took… Read more

Around this time last year (August 15, to be exact), I wrote a post about tweaking some of the CSS elements of Trinity This Week, just to update the look a little. For today’s issue, the first of the school year, I redesigned it to be consistent with our new branding platform. I played with… Read more

I created this graphic for the first day of school (August 16). It’s another vector-based, “from scratch” graphic. I used Adobe Illustrator to create it, and I was so excited to post it first thing the next morning. While I was/am pretty biased towards the graphic itself, the true measure of success where social media… Read more

I received an update today from a Trinity alum through our Alumni Association Facebook page. It would have been so nice to just copy and paste, but there was so much information, that I felt it was only responsible to verify it all before publishing.

We (The Office of Advancement) sent out this video last Tuesday, and I’ve hesitated to post it for several reasons, but here it is!

But because our site is based on a CSS, there is a single file for the footer. Only web designers/developers can relate to the… Read more

I wrote this article for this week’s newsletter (Trinity This Week). We hosted a Diversity Committee Chat last week, and I was asked by our Head of School to write an article about it. It didn’t actually run as the lead article; as pictured to the right; that’s the magic of Photoshop for the sake… Read more

A few weeks ago, I was searching through old videos for a project at work, and I ran across this one. Every year, I produce a video (about 15-25 minutes in length) highlighting community service initiatives at Trinity. This is just the ending of the 2010 video. I actually didn’t shoot any of the footage… Read more

I heard this quote by Shirley Franklin on last night’s news broadcast, and I absolutely love it. Say what you will about her and her political career, but this is not meant to be a political post; it’s a human post. Below is more of what she said. Just some thoughts to ponder: “Yes cheating… Read more
