Originally from Plymouth, Michigan, I moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico, and I earned a B.A in Studio Art in 2003, from the College of Santa Fe. In 2007 I moved to Portland, Oregon. Although predominantly a drawer and a painter, I’ve explored multiple mediums, including writing, music, film and performance. My work has been exhibited at galleries in Portland, OR, and in Los Angeles, CA. I’ve written and illustrated my own comic books, and my drawings have been included in several publications in Portland, as well as in Australia. I’ve been commissioned to create portraits, album covers and advertisements. One advertisement appeared in Willamette Week’s 2016 Restaurant guide. I was also the featured artist in the February 2019 issue of the Willamette Week. I’ve created animated short films, for which I have won awards at local film festivals. I recently finished writing and illustrating my first full graphic novel, Buffer Zone (see: Books).
