About Me

BIOGRAPHY
This site is dedicated to showing my photography and graphic design work, until I get my own site (in progress). I will be graduation from New Jersey City University in May of 2008 with a Bachelor Degree in Graphic Design...it been a long time in the making.
PORTFOLIO
My new focus here will be networking with people in the music business and the design field to help with my research with for my new portfolio project "The FUTURE of MUSIC" If you have any interest in this project or know anyone that does, please contact me. For the rest of you stay tune for some of the process work.
HISTORY
This all started in 2001 doing so graphics for a band no one's heard of (mysfunction). In one way or another those guys and that band has led me to all the bands I have worked with(Darkest Illusion, Shes is a Liar, My Only hope, UBOAF, Cloverleaf, Yours Truly and others)
In the Summer of 2007 I had an internship at Sony/BMG Music Entertainment. I worked in the merchandising department, and was given the opportunity to design point of purchase displays for major recording artist, as well as CD packaging for Costco. The internship has focused my design work and increased my interest in design in entertainment.
FUTURE
After graduation I want to be working full time in the creative field. Ideally in entertainment, music, movies or television, whether it is on the east or west coast.
WORK
Some of my older work can bee seen in the "blog" sections, there are pictures in there with samples of the photos and designs.
