If you're ever in my hometown of Sunnyvale, Cali, you might find me at Philz Coffee. Get the Philharmonic. It won't disappoint. The smell of the coffee hugs you as they make you a fresh pour-over. Maybe that's why I like it so much. After coffee, head to 85 degrees bakery and try the custard bread. I've been going there for the past four years of living here, and this place rarely disappoints!
The streetwear world is wild. I love it. Brands like Supreme, Undefeated, The Seventh Letter create some of the most exciting products with so much hype around them. When I visited LA, I remember going down to Fairfax on a sunny Thursday. The block was alive, and people were lining up. The drip on everyone was serious. I never experienced the effect these brands had on the people. I spoke to some of the people lined up at the supreme store. They were sitting on these small folding chairs, and it looked like they had set up camp there overnight. They were some of the first ones in line. They told me they’ve been waiting for this supreme drop for months now. The North Face and Supreme collaborated on some new merch, and they wanted to get their hands on it first. This was when I realized that creating designs goes beyond art it’s about the people.
