On the side, from time to time, my wife and I will tackle on some large scale projects for our company YupYup. In collaboration with S!ke Style this time around, we designed and painted a basketball court. For background, my wife’s senior thesis project was on social justice, specifically designing and campaigning for the case of Ryan Stokes, a victim of police violence.

Since then she has continued to work with the family and help where she can, but we had something a bit more planned. In order to really get the word out and forever remember Ryan’s love for basketball, we did the court.

The court is located at Harris Park in Kansas City, another great community effort that you can find out more about here
