An old high school friend of mine recently found me on Facebook. His name is Rob Ring and he now lives in Hong Kong. I say this, not only because I find it impressive, but because that’s pretty much all I know about him.

I’m currently working at WAX Partnership in Calgary. One of our clients, Shaw CableSystems is using a new fresh look – a new fun way to represent the brand. At the shop, we simply refer to it as “bubble type”.
