I'm inked from head to toe with a passion for art & music. I do both for a living and have a list of projects I am usually involved in. I tattoo professionally (12+ years), the founder of a non-profit organization that does free permanent cosmetics for cancer survivors, a children's book author & illustrator, a national recording artist/lead singer in two rock bands, a poet, a songwriter, a composer, musician (proficient in 13 instruments), a painter, an actor in several horror films- the most recent was Zombies Zombies!Zombies! which is on Netflix & reviewed as a "soon to be cult classic". I'm a philosopher and philanthropist, a surrealist, a graphic designer /digital artist as well as an up and coming animator and short film director & producer. You could say that I am married to my work. Just like the temptation of a mistress, it calls to me and gets me out of bed every morning to spend every waking hour, focused on its development and finding different ways to experience its greatness until my eyelids become heavy, late at night and I hesitantly crawl into bed to have my dreams paint new ideas and scenarios that eventually will spawn into new projects and art pieces. Being an artist for me is a 24 hour lifestyle and I seem to find the beauty in everything that life has to offer because of my constant persuit of creativity. I find that many people I meet tell me that they find me to be incredibly humble and inspiring – which I am honored to spark anyone's creativity to do something great. I'm the opposite of a hater. I'm a lover in the purest form and I try very hard to be a humanitarian even though many human beings seem to piss me off much more than the rest of the animal kingdom. I am an avid activist and great admirer of the great white shark which I believe happens to be one of the most misunderstood creatures on this planet. I suppose I relate to them because many people tend to judge me based on how I look without doing their homework to discover that I don't mean anyone harm at all. Quite the contrary.
