Growing up in Vegas, he was spellbound by the enormity of celebrity names in neon. Taking a cue from his artist Grandma and after studying art and graphic design at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, he began to make portraits that combined a graffiti style, found and sometimes random text and textures. His powerful style was rewarded with sales and exhibits. His has shown in art fairs in Shanghai, Miami, Los Angeles and San Diego.
