I was born and raised in Richmond Hill, Queens. After I discovered comic books at age 10, growing up in New York City gave me an even greater thrill. Knowing I lived in the same city as Spider-Man, The Avengers, The Teen Titans, and The Fantastic Four made reading their adventures more enjoyable. Shortly after discovering comic books, I began creating my own characters and telling my own stories.

I moved out on my own at age 19 and I have moved 22 times since, never putting down roots for more than a few years in any one place. My travels have given me a perspective on the world that I wouldn't trade for anything.

I am a United States Army Veteran and attended two prestigious art schools, Pratt Institute, and The Joe Kubert School. I also worked as a Production Artist for DC Comics.

I am currently disabled with permanent nerve damage and living in Lehighton, Pennsylvania. Every day I strive to overcome my limitations, to be creative and explore the worlds I've been developing since childhood.
