Born and raised in Chicago. Currently keeping all my things in Sonoma, Ca. I am a US Army veteran with an affection for the creative industry. My wide-ranging skills of storytelling and animation have proven useful in the creative and technology industries. For many years I was a Flash Developer/Animator and got to work on many exciting projects for some really splendid companies. Now that the industry has changed, I am able to return to my true passion - telling stories by using cartoons, illustration, film, and graphic design.

I gained my experience by working with companies that include 20th Century Fox, 360 Jets, ABC, Allscripts, Beneful, CitiBank, Cook Islands, Disney, Dreamworks, Duke University, Friskies, HBO, Hallmark, Hallmark Channel, Hoodie Buddies, Kellogg’s, MasterCard, Mattel, Miller Lite Racing, Nokia, Philip Morris USA, Philip Morris International, RIM (Blackberry), Sears US/Canada, Tom Cruise, Universal , Nokia, Now Media, Visa, and Warner Brothers.

Now I’m making films and tutorials on YouTube.com/CoconutJustice as well as a producer and technology specialist for Midway: The Story of Chicago Hip-Hop.
