Thanks for taking a look.

If you’d like to know more about me, I have some experience and interests to share.

I design and illustrate t-shirts 
and I used to screen print too

These are some of my favorite designs from over the years. If you like any of them you can check out the Imaginary Monsters shop. 

I love video games and I make them in my spare time 

I do artwork, code, and collaborate with friends. Aside from (sometimes many) game projects I have in progress, you can find Halloween Forever on Steam, Sony PS4 and Vita, and Nintendo Switch. Take a break and vomit candy corn at some skeletons.

I’m a big fan of retro games, handhelds like the 3DS and Vita. Some of my favorites games/series are Earthbound, Souls games (especially Demon’s Souls), Monster Hunter, and Dragon Quest.

I have 10+ years experience
in visual design and art direction

I love to draw, create digital art, experiment with animation and 3d modeling, and help other creatives thrive via mentorship and understanding.

I’ve had the good fortune to work for clients like Nickelodeon, Disney Junior, Google, Unity 3D, Wizards of the Coast, Paizo, Fischer Price, Genessee Brewery, The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

I’m big on reading

Science fiction, fantasy, classics, design, and ux books. I love to share good book recommendations.

Can you put 
Dungeon Master 
on your resume?

I’ve been into Dungeons & Dragons since the 90’s and love getting together with friends to play board games and tactical tabletop games like Warhammer 40k and Necromunda.

I like gardening

I built a series of raised garden beds in the backyard and set up a timed irrigation system so I’m not wasting water and I don’t need to worry about setting out the sprinkler or forgetting. I usually grow too much basil. We have a few berry bushes of different kinds and some young fruit trees getting started.
