About the Artist
I create murals, fine art pieces, and illustrations that help businesses, institutions, and organizations stand out. Whether transforming a wall or developing a series of visuals for a campaign, I bring bold ideas and clean execution to every space.Notable partners include: Apple, Meta, ArtWorks Cincinnati, Arizona State University, BrewDog USA, The Contemporary Art Center, The Cincinnati Art Museum, The Community Learning Center Institute, Cincinnati Public Schools, and the Western and Southern Open.
For The Marketer Collaborative, I created a site specific mural celebrating the beautiful chaos of the creative process. Centered on Minerva and surrounded by Cincinnati inspired creative icons, the piece transforms the workspace into a bold reflection of collaboration, strategy, and unexpected inspiration.
For this Big Tech commission, I created a site-specific, three-dimensional wall piece responding to the client's mission. Using the Ohio River as a metaphor for social media, I depicted characters inspired by local history and fauna, along with my own, to express how social media can positively share interests and build communities.
This 13' x 8' installation, created in collaboration with fellow Cincinnati artist Cryptogram, was commissioned by a couple to celebrate their New Orleans heritage and dominates much of their downtown apartment.
The local non-profit ArtWorks acquired this 13' x 7' installation piece, which is on display in their building.
It was the centerpiece of the gallery show I organized while I was the ArtWorks artist-in-residence in Spring 2024, and it juxtaposes historical and contemporary life in the East Walnut Hills neighborhood.
I included this piece to demonstrate the breadth of my skill set. This was a t-shirt and poster design I created for my personal art exhibition in 2025, in which I created pieces in response to the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, celebrating the changing cultures in one of Cincinnati's most unique neighborhoods.
