About This Blog
Why Obscure Observations?
Because though things in life can seem obscure, when you really stop to observe, there is a simple clarity to everything, and that puts smile on my face. With that said, this blog has become much more than my obscure observations. It has followed me through my interests, career and life.
What does it mean to me today?
After several years in the emerging media place, particularly passionate about how blogs impact consumers and where advertising fits into that equation, today I use my blog to document that brand, campaigns or companies that stand out to me in the sea of start-ups here in my fair city of San Francisco.
And me?
Well, I'm just a passionate, curious, hard working girl soaking up the world with this giant sponge I'm lucky to call my own.
