Bio

Art is my life, with music as a very close second. Since the moment I could hold something in my hand, I was painting, doodling, or trying to do something creative. I grew up in a very creative household with a mother being a serious art appreciator, and a father in the music business. Creativity was my destiny. It started in the fourth grade when I started drawing my own one-page cartoon characters and scenes. It wasn’t until high school where I started developing my fine art skills. I had a few art lessons here and there, both group and private, but they never stuck. I paved my own way with my art.

Despite the lack of an art program in my high school, I proceeded to create art outside of school, and dabbled in photography, acrylic painting, mixed media, illustration, and a few crude graphic designs. I continued my education at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising where I earned my AA in Graphic Design with an emphasis on Entertainment Design. Action Sports became my passion and I have since been pursuing a career in that industry
