I'm a technogeek who loves videogames, movies, TV and music. BUT who doesn't love those things really? Crazy people, that's who!
What is unique that's not in your bio?
I'm a fun-loving misanthrope with a "Simpsons-esque" sense of humour.
What's your favorite accomplishment?
Placing terribly at a local Super Street Fighter 4 tournament. What? It's nerve-racking.
How do you define cool?
In a nutshell? Batman.
What is your secret to uncovering trends?
Awesome people gravitate to awesome things and vice versa.
What do you enjoy most about Trend Hunter?
The colours! OH and the variety of articles. There is always more to be read!
What is your favorite trend?
Perpetually changing! Check back in a month if my mind has been blown recently.
What are your tips for writing a juicy post?
I'd say, find the trendhunters you like the best, scan their posts for what aspects you enjoy the most (i.e. writing style, content), sprinkle in your own personal touch and you can't go wrong!
How do you reset to be creative?
Watch a movie or a show, play videogames, read, get out of the house, eat food. Perhaps these are just regular everyday activities, I'm not too sure, still trying to pin point my muse.
What inspires or excites you?
Good music, good food and love <3
Predict something awesome for 2020?
If we make it passed 2012, I will be sure to update this!
