About

I originally started Mug a Friend for a pup named Bailey. She passed in 2024, but the store lives on because of you - and because I've learned too much and worked too hard to quit now. Bailey may no longer be here to supervise operations, but every late night designing or printing shipping labels reminds me of the best dog a guy could have.

This mug shop is a one-man operation. Graphic designer? That's me. Web dev? Also me. I may not have a giant printing lehr or a minion to answer emails for me, but I do have a joy of designing and the ability to hold conversations with myself.

I have a full-time job and work on this shop during nights and weekends. Instead of binge watching shows, I stare at site analytics and spend an hour tweaking a button no one will notice.

P.S. My wife has notified me that "employee" is the socially correct term for someone who does tasks for you. Apologies.
