Winter Write up

Posted in Family, The City by ChazNugget on the February 23rd, 2008

Sorry I haven’t been posting as frequently as before. Been really busy at work and been picking up some freelance. At work, I’ve been working on the new Merrill Lynch website – which I must say, is one of the best looking financial services websites. My buddy Brett did most of the initial design – so much credit to him.

On the side, I’ve been doing some work for a company in SF and a few smaller gigs for friends. Ricardo has been helping me out with my new portfolio – hopefully it will be live in a couple weeks. Haven’t updated my site in over 1 year, so look for some new selected works and check out what I’ve been up to here in NYC.

Just had my ‘compensation’ meeting with my boss (whoo hoo!) so last Thursday I celebrated by having Chilean Sea Bass for lunch at this Cuban restaurant in mid-town and for dinner, took the family out to our favorite diner, Georgia Diner, here in Queens.

The weather has been a bit nuts: everything from sub freezing, winds over 25mph, snow, sleet, rain, a day of 60deg cali weather, and everything in between.

Below is a collection of images over the past couple weeks. Enjoy.
