About Me

Well what do you want to know? I'm a textile designer for Abercrombie & Fitch women's tops, as well as a freelance illustrator and designer, with clients located across the US and the UK. On that note, I'm a work-aholic. I however live by the motto of working hard and playing harder. I'm a pretty sane guy.... don't fall into the stereotypes, which is a good thing. uh... lets see what else. I recently discovered I DO in fact like spinach. The fresh leafy kind, not the gross popeye in a can kind. Family and friends are extremly important to me, without them I wouldn't be who I am, or where I am today. I love my life, and the way things are unfolding on a daily basis. I'm a perfectionist and don't believe in settling for less. I'm an extremly positive person and may come off as angry (see: furrowed brow) but I'm not... Really. If you see me out, talk to me. You'll be surprised to find I'm a pretty nice fella. I promise hah. Anyhow... if you wanna know more... e-mail me.
