For writing that’s relatively fun
My first taste of audience engagement came in high school, when a satire piece earned me laughs and a light sprint from classmates who didn’t quite get the joke. Since those halcyon days of unintentional exercise, I’ve published in McSweeney's, Cartoon Collections, Gizmodo, GamePro Magazine, PC World, Weekly Humorist, and the Portsmouth Herald.
To pay the bills, I’m an award-winning associate creative director crafting copy for E*TRADE, GEICO, Change the Ref, Suntory, and KFC (just to name a few).

ILLUSTRATION & CARTOONS
I’m teaching myself to illustrate with the goal of writing a children’s book some day. Fun fact: Occasionally, my wife sends a caption that I use to create original cartoons.
