Behind the Design
Behind it all lies a sleeping brute of a monkey wishing only to have a decent night sleep, his illustration skills to return to college levels, make enough money not to worry about bills, and enough time during the weekend to relax and play with our son before trudging off to another wonderful work week.

Husband & Father
First and foremost, I'm one proud father. Willem Donald was born March 3rd and is now the center of everything I do. I hope to corrupt him with comic books, useless movie knowledge, Atari, and Nintendo. I'm married to the love of my life Jennifer and we live happily in my hometown of Pardeeville, WI, for the moment.

Designer & Photographer
Classically trained in the arts of color, layout, and composition from the minds at the Art Department of MATC-Truax. It was so nice, I graduated twice -- once in communications and once in applied arts. First photography, then graphic design took their hold in the skills of my head. Dealing with various job prospects as a graphic designer in the Madison job market has led to many good years in the creative field from large to small corporations, and ultimately to my very own studio in my home. During my training at college, I accumulated between 10 - 12 studies in photography alone and currently own seven cameras ranging from and old Kodak Pony to my new Canon EOS 8 Mega-Pixel Digital.

I've created or shot almost anything you can think of: logos, brands, websites, brochures, senior class portraits, menu boards, signage, wallpaper, location photography, hanging structures, sales literature, weddings, receptions, Taste of Madison venues, complete corporate identities, product photography, annual reports, and hundreds of business cards.

Everything Else
I currently am a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association and one of the founding members of the Save Farscape Campaign. I enjoy loosing my vision to Best Week Ever on VH1, The Soup on E!, Dexter & Weeds on Sho, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends & Narato on Cartoon Network, Entourage on HBO, BSG, SGA, and Doctor Who on Sci-Fi. I also enjoy sitting with our boy and watching his favorite shows too.
