November 15th, 2025 marked sixteen years of Rin’s Comet. Sixteen years since I started this dream, sixteen years of learning every part of comic making through trial, error, and determination. I knew I could not let the anniversary pass quietly. I wanted to honor the work, the people who supported it, and the version of myself who kept going even when it felt impossible. So I organized a celebration at the Asbury Park Brewery, a full night of music, art, and community. I book

Survifern’s main weekend ran from August 29th through August 31st, but for me it really started the Thursday before and didn’t end until Monday. The entire week leading up to it was a blur of planning, final checks, supply runs, and making sure every build, prop, and challenge station was ready to go.

I am looking forward to contributing to the team, learning from a new environment, and bringing the experience I have built over the years into a place where it can conti

My time at Merola Tile came to an end at the close of July, and I want to take a moment to acknowledge the experience and everything I learned while I was there. Working in that environment taught me a great deal about organization, communication, and the importance of understanding the full scope of a project from start to finish. I am grateful for the skills I developed and the people I had the chance to work alongside. At the same time, I reached a point where I needed a r
