Continuing with the idea of showing my gratitude towards the people that have had a positive impact on my life; whether they know it or not, and using #followfriday as an outlet towards that goal. Last week we introduced Paul Yoo, Katie Gould, and Teddy Moynihan. I’m super excited to intro you to Beatrice Chastka (@beatricechastka) and Nikita Hamilton (@nikitathamilton) When you’re able to juggle working with @workatnbcu @fxnetworks and successfully defend a doctoral dissertation, then you’ll might have a small idea of how intellectually powerful and creative our friend @nikitahamilton truly is. She has completely opened my eyes to the impact of representation in media and I haven’t consumed media the same way since! Creative, talented, all around super nice person. These are just a few words that come to mind when describing our friend Beatrice! Building her career as a prop stylist, she has been doing fantastically beautiful work with @epicurious @gffmag and @papillonthemag, if only every photo I take could be as beautiful as hers are! Please give them both a follow: each has a beautiful view of the world, unique to their own experiences and I’m grateful to have met both through my amazing wife @mrsvanillaweiss (at Women)

In the Midwest at the moment but always have Philly in my heart (at Suburban Station)

I’ve been working with the idea of showing my gratitude towards the people that have had a positive impact on my life; whether they know it or not, and using #followfriday as an outlet towards that goal. Last week we introduced 3 awesome #philadelphians: @foodsweatnbeers @swingtimekingtime and @streetsdept. This week, we have Paul Yoo, Katie Gould, and Teddy Moynihan Paul and I met during our time at Franklin and Marshall College. Paul has always been one of the kindest, most outstanding human beings you’ll ever meet. Quick example, while teaching English abroad in Japan, Paul found himself in country at the same time as the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. In response to the devastation, Paul and others founded The Fruit Tree Project, establishing a network and funding to provide fresh fruit deliveries to compliment other food relief efforts. While Paul doesn’t post often about his work, he does post the beautiful scenery that he gets to enjoy whether it be flyfishing, snowboarding or his work with Patagonia Katie and I had the pleasure of meeting through our mutual friend @swingtimekingtime and is a life-long resident of the Philly area. While Katie has been a long time member of the Philadelphia performing arts community, her success in recent years as a pop up fitness and yoga instructor led to the creation of KG Strong studio in the Bok Building. Her work in that space has reignited my own interest in fitness and I appreciate the daily content that she puts out to better educate that community. Finally, Teddy Moynihan. I met Teddy back in 02-03 through my best friend Rob. Teddy and him were freshman together at Villanova and our mutual love of Phish brought us together. What makes me so grateful for Teddy’s friendship is the overwhelming kindness and positivity he brings to everyone around him. If you have spent or enjoy spending time at the Rittenhouse Square farmers market, have ever eaten delicious veggies @pizzacamp @vedgephiladelphia @getbaod, or visited their farm in Pipersville, you already know he (and his lovely family) pour their heart into their work.
