About Me

I am a graphics designer/illustrator.I was born and raised in the Bay Area. I love sci fi and fantasy. I love comics and toys. I love Metal, Punk and even have a place in my heart for 80's new wave.I currently live in the East Bay where I work out of my graphics studio 3 blocks from my house. I am single ( have been single by choice for almost 6 years now) and I suffer from something called Agorophobia. I originally developed agorophobia back when I was 23. But 2 years ago it got really bad and it has severley limited my abilitiy to do stuff.I Love drawing and writing and hanging out with my 2 best friends Harkonnen the cat and Erza the sweetest pit bull in the world.
