Scroll down to meet Dan, my long-time friend and handyman. He walked in April 7 one year ago and without much discussion, took out his utility knife and starting cutting a long line in the carpet. I asked what he was doing, and he replied matter-of-factly, "I'm pulling up the carpet!"
"Well, ok then," I thought. And that set the standard of the demo, construction and remodeling of what is now The Shift. We just did it. Every day. Solving problems and creating beauty. It was truly a series of miracles, and it wouldn't have happened without luminous support from students, friends and even strangers.
