A man with long hair, glasses, and a mustache working at a desk with multiple computer monitors and a laptop in an office with blinds covering the window.

โ€œDean shreds. The guy has serious design chops, a heart of gold, and a working sensibility that is pretty much workaholic, though completely forgivable because he makes work fun, which is the classy way to do it. The manโ€™s a catch.โ€
