Freelance illustrator and Designer 

I've worked as a graphic designer/artist and illustrator since 1997. In my tween and teen years I was heavily influenced by skateboards, t-shirts, and comic books. They helped to steer me into my life's work and, 19 years into my career and a myriad of design experiences later, they are still the things I most enjoy designing.
