About

For over 20 years (self taught in high school), I've been developing websites and custom web applications. I went to a community college to score my AS in Computer Technologies (you know, cuz that's just what you do) and went on to grab my first job with a small marketing agency in 2003. That agency eventually dissolved in 2013, leaving me to pursue freelance work. Fast forward several years; I have developed several direct client relationships with some local businesses as well as contract with a few marketing agencies to handle their overflow work.

Since the 2020 COVID pandemic, when most companies paused their marketing efforts, my contract work slowed down giving me time to pick up the colored pencils and paint brushes (which I haven't touched in over a decade!), and I began drawing family pets which very quickly turned into commissioned pet portraits via Instagram

I tend to keep myself busy and love what I do!
