The Adventures of Cindy Li
The new job at Scrapblog
April 9 , 2007
Once upon a time
I attended conferences, many, many conferences. I spoke to everyone I could and made some great friends along the way I met an amazing User Interface designer, Mike Gowen. He totally looks like Doogie Howser (Mike don’t kill me) but he’s real and a lot smarter. He had hired Veerle Pieters to do a few themes for Scrapblog and realized we were friends (she had put me into her theme).
What happened next...
He invited me to come down and take a look at the Scrapblog offices in Miami to meet the CEO, Carlos Garcia. The entire Scrapblog family is amazing. I did a theme for the project and I was hooked. I kept asking when I could do more themes and they offered me a job. I accepted the position at Scrapblog as their Director of Content.
The theme I created
I’m looking for the best illustrators out there to hire in the next month. I officially start April 12th but I’ll be keeping my eyes and ears open for illustrators.
