PERSONAL WORK
My favorite style is pen & ink, specifically pointillism. I love the meditative nature and the resulting texture and contrast. Additionally, I work in color pencil and watercolor, and I enjoy experimenting in Procreate. There are so many wonderful brushes and possibilities.

ABOUT
My background is in CREATIVE PRODUCTION for the digital media and video game industries. I specialize in reenergizing teams and helping internal and external partners navigate change.
For over 20 years, I've partnered with international, creative talent as a publishing liaison for companies like Corbis, RealNetworks, Scripps Media, Gamehouse, Oberon, iWin, and Electronic Arts. Among my list of clients are Reuters, NatGeo, Lifetime Television, the ATF, GSN, JamCity, and countless, independent photography and game studios.
Since 2012, I've focused on NARRATIVE DESIGN directing, writing, and editing more than a dozen scripts for long-format, story-driven games. My games have been downloaded hundreds of millions of times worldwide and translated into several languages. My short stories and creative nonfiction have been published in Narrative Magazine, Popshot Quarterly, Bull Lit, Matter Press, and Suddenly, and Without Warning.
My early career is best described as kindness-driven. My professional, non-profit experience includes the Missionaries of Charity, St. Joseph's Foodbank, Shorebank Advisory Services, Pediatric Home Care, and the Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund. Additionally, I've professionally test-driven cars for General Motors and built case files for the Exxon Valdez litigation.
Due to an insatiable curiosity, I've couch-surfed around the globe, from Kenya to Japan, from England to Maui, and all points in between. I've sailed the Inside Passage and soloed multiple mountains from the Cascades to the Sangre de Cristos to Haleakala. For four years, I lived on a sailboat in the Puget Sound before single-handedly converting a school bus into an RV which I then drove around the US writing essays about my travels.
My goal is to learn something new every day and put this knowledge to work for the good of all.
