Howzit everyone,
I’m switching things up a bit with the newsletter! I know everyone’s busy, so I’m keeping things more condensed and easy to skim for events, and added some extras. What do you think of the new format? What kind of things would you like to see included?
You can email me at [email protected] or DM me on IG here if you have any suggestions. Mahalosss 🤙
