I am here for Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

I was trained as a photographer, a sign maker by trade: I am currently designing posters and graphic imagery in the southern California region. I started producing posters for my former band, from there I have been hired by various promoters in the L.A., San Diego, and the Inland Empire. I am currently working with bands from around the vast southwest. Inspired by Ska and Reggae legends I consider myself lucky to have been commissioned by the local promoters to do the visual promotion aspects in the summer 0f 2006 for "The Hollywood Ska Reggae Fest Part II"I have been creating posters for SoCal clubs such as The Belly Up Tavern, Soma, The Knitting Factory, and The House Of Blues. I also had the opportunity to do the print ads for 94/9's Independence Jam.Art has fueled my life since I was just a boy growing up in Wisconsin, drawing with my friends. When I'm not designing I work the board at two San Diego county AM radio stations, I promote local Ska shows, and I play in the Ska, Rocksteady, and Reggae band "The Amalgamated"
