Roy Recio got me to be one of the Board of Advisors for the Manilatown Heritage Foundation. haha. It’s funny – I’d NEVER have time to do stuff like this while working for my old ad agency. I’m really proud of this accomplishment. Things have been pretty fun since moving back to the Bay Area. Good times ahead.
