A graduate of the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art, I started my career as the colorist in the bullpen of King Features Syndicate coloring such world-renowned strips as Blondie, Beetle Bailey and Hagar the Horrible. A highlight while on staff was briefly ghosting Secret Agent Corrigan for good friend and mentor, George Evans.

While on staff, I was hired as the writer and artist of the Flash Gordon newspaper strip. My original tenure ran from 1996 to 2003.

Work experience has also included teaching, most recently at MCAD. I've also taught/guest lectured at area schools on the east coast, including SVA in Manhattan and Hofstra’s UCCE Youth Programs.

I currently provide graphic art for numerous syndicated features and companies. Clients include King Features Syndicate, Viz Media, Jantze Studios and Manuscript Press.
