Chicken Vs. Pig - SDev Jedi Stuff : 2014

Chicken Vs. Pig - SDev Jedi Stuff

About Me

Will Thompson, J.D.: For the past 15 years, William has dedicated his downtime to art, affectionately dubbing his style as “Divorced Dad Art.” His creations are a testament to his eclectic tastes and interests, merging various mediums such as mixed media, painting, woodworking, metalworking, leatherworking, Resin and Epoxy and 3D printing. This blend of techniques reflects his self-described “hodge podge” approach, which balances intricate detail with a spontaneous, ADHD-fueled creativity. His work is heavily influenced by his love for science fiction and the natural world, resulting in pieces that are both whimsical and meticulously crafted.

To My Atlanta Consultants and Clients: ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND! (Dec 12th-15th Social Calendar in the ATL!)

Good Friday to everyone…. I hope your week was not quite as hectic as mine has been!

Typically when the end of the year is upon us, especially in the last few years, I’m able to slow down a little as the hiring cycle has all but stopped. This year? My Req load is 14% LARGER that last quarter! But I’m not complaining, by any means! 2015 is gearing up to be rebirth of our economy, that fact I’m assured of! But what do you think? What have you seen? Please do express your opinion with me!

Anyhow, if you're plan-less in ATL... Hopefully this helps!
