Hi! I'm a Baltimore, MD-based illustrator, comic book artist/writer, graphic designer, musician, cake decorator and cat enthusiast. Cake art and design was formerly my day job for over a decade, where I worked at Baltimore’s Charm City Cakes and was on the Food Network's reality show “Ace of Cakes”.. But now, I design all sorts of stuff from app graphics to band posters, peppered with comics mostly about myself and my beautiful black cat, The Bat. He's a good boy.

I suck at bios but here's a bunch of stuff I like so you get an idea of what kind of human I am: Cats, drawing, Martin Denny, running, pre-1990s sugar cereal mascots- particularly Sugar Bear- his voice is smooth as hell, fizzy water, power pop of the late 7o's, Peter Pan collars, Telecasters, kaiju movies, neon signs, Velvet Underground, Halloween… actually- all of October, chonks, puns, Billy Childish, Malbec, bats, Hanna Barbara, tiki crap, makeup, Art Spiegelman.

Fun Facts: I'm terrible at baking, I hate bananas, I've pretended to know how to change a tire before (do not advise).
