About Me
I’m an artist originally from the suburbs of Chicago and I’ve been drawing since I was in kindergarten. While the teacher was reading a book about monsters, I was drawing them in my notebook.
As a graphic designer I've worked on projects for Philmont Scout Ranch, Chase Ranch, WIU (Western Illinois University), and the Tri-States Public Radio. I've created museum exhibits, maintained the former website for New Song Community Church, and designed a new logo for the MCCF (McDonough County Community Foundation).
I love learning about how the Siberian Ice Maiden got her ancient tattoos? What did Etruscan music really sound like? Is Sporalogy the new Astrology? Who invented Russian ovens and is a degree in Canadian Studies really worth it?
A 3D rendering of the Siberian Ice Maiden. One of the oldest, well preserved mummified humans ever discovered. Found frozen in the Siberian steppes, she is most famous for the plethora of wild tattoos that wrap extensively around her body.

An old drawing of a Russian Oven. They’re big enough and used at such low tempratures, that in winter months children can sleep inside or on the roof of the ovens to stay warm. They’re used to cook things very, very slowly. Only slightly like a really big crockpot.
