About Me

Y’all, we’re all gonna die.
That’s the exciting part.
It’s learning how to live for a living,
that’s the tricky stitch.
- Buddy Wakefield

for a living i obsess over fonts, white space, and the practical application of asymmetrical balance. i work out of a studio in my apartment, my dimly lit desk littered with magazine clippings, open books, half-full coffee cups and a binder full of business cards. you can check out my website, www.robbanwar.com, right here.
although I am an atheist, I strongly believe in the principles of interdependence and rational buddhism .
just fighting for my little piece of your monkeysphere.
i'm a vegetarian because there is no need for me to eat meat. however, i'm not going to give you a hard time about it. we all make our own choices.
i used to be part of America's #1 Party Band , Nik and the Nice Guys. now i just haunt Jeremiah's Tavern on monroe ave on karaoke night occasionally - i am unintentionally retired from the stage, but it's probably good for me.
i spend my free time brushing up on the entirety of human knowledge . i hope to one day understand .01% of it.

if you're going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you're going to be locked up.
