Raised in the DIY punk scene of Albuquerque, NM, I grew up making flyers and t-shirts for local bands. In my early career I was an entrepreneur of hand sewn monsters, mosaics, and mugs. It was a natural evolution to art school and a newfound love for ceramics and sculpture.
Opportunities in game design and art direction brought me to New York, where I co-founded the game design company “Perfect Hat Games” in 2017.
I am a scholar of visual understanding and communication. Game design marries the two concepts and play is the primary tool to discover new ideas.
I love the whole process of design: from the early concept phases, to illustrating, to looking at the whole picture of a brand, idea, or game and transforming it into a cohesive thought, instantly recognizable to all audiences.
