CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

A sarcastic inebriated infidel.
nah, only on weekends. I'm a painter and illustrator and artist of all sorts.
Was living in Berlin, DE for the past year and just returned to the States last month after hitchhiking across Europe and in Morocco for the last two months before leaving. I loved Germany but a lot of things were calling me back including the homicide of a really good friend who I am now devoting my time making zines of his stories.

I have recently started an indiegogo campaign for the continued printing of the zines as well as a book in the works.

I'm easy going, love to hitchhike and cliff jump, I like tator tot casserole and metal music.
