  • About the Author

    My name is Seth Perkins. I’m tired of being asked “What do you do?” and having to give some concise elevator-pitch response to try and sell myself, my services and my value.  We have gotten much to focused on “being” some specific title/talent/skill for the sake of being more effective and valuable service providers in ...

  • Unity3D – Best Plugins on the Asset Store
