My origin story
I guess it all started the first time I made a finger painting with spaghetti sauce as a baby, from there I blossomed into the oversized adult baby you see now. As you can tell from a young age I was artistic, sketching and drawing my favorite comic characters (Spider and Wolvie) and animated tv shows (TMNT 1 is still my jam). As I grew into an angsty teen I focused my energy into creating music and album cover art. I played countless live shows and in countless bands under a wide range of musical styles. This curved my creative outlets for awhile but it never seemed enough.
My junior year in high school a representative of the Art Institute of Houston came to a career day at my schools gym. It was there that I discovered that my silly drawings and doodles could be molded into a viable career. So I cut my hair and decided to become a functional member of society. I took a job at a local screen printing shop and got my career started in the creative industry. Even to this day I am an avid t-shirt junkie and own more than any sane grown man should. After high school I attended and graduated the Art Institute with a degree in graphic and web design. From there I accepted a job at Sachnowitz & Co. as a very green and very inexperienced designer. This job set me on the path to where I am today. Still passionate and still creative even after 20 plus years in this ever changing business.
The last 12 years or so I have been an Art Director, leading teams to thrive in a steady environment that breeds excellence. I have alway had an eye for creativity and can’t see myself doing anything else. I believe that your passion shows in your work, and my passion is bringing businesses to life, creating systems and campaigns that enrich your company in the public eye.
