As the child of a hippie (mom) and an artist (dad), I had an interesting youth. I moved a lot as a child, since my mother was a bit of a nomad. I was born in Berkeley, California, and have also lived in NH, NY, TN, TX, SC, NY (again), and now happily live in North Carolina.

I was exposed to art by my father at an early age, and it seemed to stick. What started out with drawing comics and doing magazine cutout collages with my dad, turned into digital art and design. After taking a couple years of graphic art classes in high school, I graduated and took a course in Graphic Communications. I really enjoyed designing on computers and decided to move to New York and finish my education at a proper art school. I got hired by an advertising agency while in school, and that’s where I feel the education started!

But I am not all work and no play. I also enjoy being a dad/family man, photography, painting, playing poker, searching Craig’s List for old German cars, and occasionally smoking overpriced cigars.
