Roodle is a location based mobile app in which a user privately rates places.I started the project in 2011 and formed the company in 2013. Roodle has proved to be my hardest journey yet.

    Chantilly, Virginia, Us
    Provide support for all graphics/web to ORS (Operationally Responsive Space). This included several launches such as SL-6, ORS-3, ORS-4, and ORS-5.There’s always an exciting project with ORS. I’ve branded them from the beginning. I’ve been tasked to make videos, mission patches and stickers, team banners, plaques, and too many posters to count. We once put hundreds of stickers into the nose of a rocket for the SL-6 Mission. When it returned we collected the stickers so recipients now have something that has been into space. By far the best experience of my life was the launch of ORS-3. I was fortunate enough to do the advertising for the launch through video, banners, mission patches, and enormous stickers for the side of the rocket. They then invited me to come on-site to see the launch. Seeing a rocket launch off the eastern shore of Wallops Islands, Virginia, is a must for any human. The rocket reached the bottom tip of Africa in 11 minutes.
