As a well traveled kid from a scrappy Virginia city, creativity was a direct result of my vivid imagination. I grew up drinking in sports, collectibles, and sneakers. I mean, Godzilla vs Barkley, Bo Knows, and Got Milk? campaigns were responsible for so much of my framework. Saturday morning cereal commercials, FOX Kids Club magazines, ZooBooks… They all still bubble up in my design language all these years later.

Big City celebrities had a hold on me, wearing the latest and freshest while peddling products with bold, bright colors, strong typefaces, and booming soundtracks. That environment and sphere of influence has translated into a modernized set of art habits and wild (learning) experiences.

Keeping a duffle packed and ready for a new adventure at a moment’s notice, I am a firm believer in fully immersing yourself into the energy of the brand you’re trying to capture (or create). I take a methodological approach to design, looking to solve problems and communicating those solutions succinctly.

I’ve helped a hall of fame rapper and a world renowned sneakerhead launch their food media company, a Texas chef land a relationship with a national BBQ sauce brand, and worked with the Fritz-Pollard Alliance & the NFL to award current league members for exercising the Rooney Rule. I’m less often the overly busy guy chained to a desk with 5 titles, 20 deadlines, and no time to do it now a days. Ultron would be proud... Or trying to assimilate my Avengers-level brain.
