Originally from the Garden State (exit 9), I flew the coop for the Rocky Mountains of CO where I made a life as a ski bum and punished myself in endurance mountain bike races. I decided to ditch the ice scraper and continued westward to Los Angeles where I've been working on projects for Nissan USA and Southwest Airlines over the last eight years. When I'm not wielding my Wacom pen and putting pixels where they belong, I'm out searching for good swell, riding technical singletrack, or fixing whatever is currently broken on my 1984 VW Westfalia.

Behind the device
I'm no photographer, just a dude with an iPhone and an appreciation for occasionally capturing moments in the right light. No selfies. No food plates. Perhaps a few too many sunsets—but who doesn't love a good sunset?
