I was born and raised in upstate NY. I graduated from The School of Visual Arts in Manhattan with a BFA in illustration.

I'm a visual artist specializing in illustration and design. As a freelancer, I created illustrations for newspapers and indie film houses as well as designed identity packages for theaters, athletes and restaurants. Some of my past clients include The New York Press, Elektra Records, Pig Dog Films, and Octagon Marketing. I spent a year working for an apparel company designing and creating graphics. After a brief stint living in Hawaii, I joined the staff at an NYC animation studio doing illustration, asset design, character design, art direction, compositing, and motion graphics.

Essential tools include: Pencils, Pens, Watercolor, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash and After-Effects.
