About Me

Much of my youth was spent skateboarding and doing graffiti in Southern Califoria. These two links brought me in contact with some amazing individuals. Between the ages 15-27, I was heavily involved in the underground hip-hop movement. Inspired by the Los Angeles scene, like "Project Blowed" and “The Good life” I found a new approach to art - one that was free and raw. Not to mention all the wild things that were happening in North County, San Diego.

The music and art I've been exposed to has helped me get closer to the artist I desire to be. Currently, I am self-employed Art Director and Graphic Designer. I also paint in a form called "Grafstraction". Last year I was in a near fatal accident and have been recovering for many months. At this point, I consider my life a gift and have learned many lessons during the course.
