I got my first job as a professional artist by doing political cartoons for a local paper when I was sixteen, and I've been working in the field ever since. My work have been featured in nationally distributed daily newspapers and major greeting card lines while winning numerous awards in categories ranging from editorial cartooning, illustration, sports photography, and comic book writing/illustrating. In June of 2005 my work was collected in the first volume of "Treaded Trademark Comics," which featured an extremely skewed take on today's most popular super heroes. I am available for all manner of illustration, whether it be humorous cartoons or highly rendered fine-art pieces. I have studied art in London and Paris and have received instruction from the Kansas City Art Institute and the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. My background in newspapers means that I work extremely well under a deadline and can produce quality work in a short period of time.
