2015 One Moto Show in Portland
I left the Home Depot web dept. at the beginning of December 2014 to go back on a design shop and get more creative work since I was all inspired by how Silver Piston had been doing. I was there 30 days and got fired. It was then it was decided to just try doing jewelry full-time.
Rewind a couple of month to the fall of 2014, I had reached out to Thor at See See Motorcycles in Portland about being a small sponsor for his brainchild, the One Moto, just about the coolest motorcycle show out there. A deal was struck and part of that deal was I provide custom hobo half dollars. It was helmeted skull with the One Moto logo. These were part of the prize bags awarded for the various show bike winners. I also had a table set up right inside the entrance selling my jewelry and meeting all these people I knew from Instagram.
That weekend was the first time Holly and I had been to Portland and it was a weird warm spell that had the sun out and temps in the 60s during the day. I met so many people that weekend that I’m still friends with and keep touch.
