Creator & Founder

I am a freelance illustrator and graphic designer based in Los Angeles, CA.

I love to create in a variety of avenues, from photography and design to ink and lettering. This enables my work to be full of abundance in genre, style, era, and medium. I kinda have an obsession with retro/ vintage stuff. Especially type. 

I am also the creator of the small ego, which is an art collective, brand, and community I began in March 2019. This is the portal to all my passion projects as well as where I offer my design services through. Head over to thesmallego.com for more.

I began creating cover artwork for Parcast in mid 2016. Parcast is now owned by Spotify where it leads some of the most popular crime-related and history podcasts on iTunes with over 80 million downloads since its founding in 2016. I have been creating covers for them since the start. Each cover is always a fun and creatively-flexible project.

the small ego believes that there is room for us all to win and that it is possible to do big things whilst keeping the ego small.

I created the small ego with the intention of bringing all kinds of creators from differing industries together.

Treating it as a portal to my passion projects, I strive to create artwork, produce merchandise, and host events where we can connect and share our experiences in person. A possible excuse to get us away from our devices and social media and to connect on a human level again.

I offer freelance design and illustration services through the small ego as well. 

Main objectives include designing, conceptualizing, and planning all creative marketing vehicles from digital ads, to landing pages, to campaign launches and more for a variety of new products and gadgets in the industry.

Cleu Inc. is a mobility automation system app available on the iPhone and Apple Watch. My work with Cleu consists of a full upgrade of the brand identity, as well as an entirely new interface. All illustration, design, and surrounding elements have been custom made in the last year. This has broadened my experience through intensive, strict deadlines and over-night turnarounds all as the solo head designer at Cleu Inc.
