An entirely unserious website
A place to showcase small projects and fun things that I do.
If you play in this world, you'll know: every project turns into "final.final.FINAL.v1" eventually. The sooner we understand that we are all flawed humans tinkering with space rocks, the better off we'll be.
About Me
I'm Jonathan Roberts. I own an agency called Aspire. We tell stories, build communities, and make websites that are way better than this one.
This is my digital playground where "final version" is a running joke and version control is more of a suggestion.
CURRENTLY:
→ I'm building an amazing team.
→ I co-founded a small town run club that's the best.
→ I have a blog and have started messing with some radio stuff—"old internet" stuff that's more fun than social media.
What I Do
Digital Storytelling
For many years, I've told stories behind a camera. It's integral to everything I do.
