Summary
There’s nothing like watching a project grow and come to completion; the joy, the stress, the revelations, the tears all wrapped up into an experience that can be shared. I enjoy the challenge of writing or translating a compelling story into the visual medium and then presenting it to an audience. There’s always room to grow so feedback is as important to me as it is to continue moving forward. Whether it is for work or personal use, I produce art every day, I learn something new when I am presented with a problem and I give back what I can to my community. My free time is spent offering affordable comic book and illustration classes to kids at my local community center. I self-publish two comic book series and sell them at comic conventions. My work hours are filled with projects from illustrating and providing print layout for children’s books to turning around pitch boards for a company’s presentation at the drop of a hat because I have the reputation of being reliable. When I’m not working, I enjoy a bucket of home-made popcorn and a good horror movie, watching cartoons, or venturing out to find another addition to my modest Plastic Man collection. I am also a proud, registered tribe member of the Cherokee Nation. Experience
