Biography[edit]
I'm 31, I live in Atlanta, Georgia and I am a full time Graphic Designer. By day I work almost exclusively on a computer so as a contrasting outlet, I started sculpting and painting custom toys. I had already been collecting designer vinyl for a while and when Kidrobot first came out with their DIY figure Munny back in 2006, I picked a few up and ever since the amount of custom work I do has been gradually growing to now, where I am working on customs every day outside of my day job. The most important things I try to explore in my work are innovation and experimentation through the subject material I enjoy most — movies, cartoons, television, comics and video games.
