Meet Roshane Karunaratne aka The General. Born in Staten Island, this super musically talented man can be found cruising around Asbury on his skateboard, long hair blowing in the wind. I’ve always been so fascinated by musicians… especially when they can play ALL the instruments. When I found out Roshane played piano, I knew we had to snap a few photos of him banging on the keys. This guy can pick up a guitar, bass and drums like it ain’t no thang. If you invite him to a party, he’s been known to hijack the music.
“Ro” can be found daydreaming about playing music at The Seven Wonders of the World or flying a plane. He also loves trail biking, chess, kayaking and making animations. Ro and his buddy Andrew make up the band, Mister Tickle Hands. They say they "like to make funky dance music and love to make people dance” with their psychedelic dance music.
When asked about the jewelry, Roshane said that he loves the CMD jewelry and that “it’s a very unique style that I’ve never seen before.” Next time you see Roshane at one of his shows, don’t be surprised if he’s rocking our square rings. The jewelry sure does look good on you, General!

Miglia and I are sort of attached at the hip. Nine out of ten times you see me walking down the street, Miglia will be with me. I bring her everywhere – she comes with me to work, she runs errands with me, we eat our meals together, she goes to the beach with me…she’s with me all the [...]
By now, you may have noticed CMD's trend towards smaller, more frequent product launches. As a designer, I love the challenge of being creatively disciplined. Part of this practice involves writing in my journal and drawing in my sketchbook daily. The joy and fulfillment that [...]
