Artist, Muralist, Producer,

I am a visual artist working in a variety of mediums that include video, photography, illustration, murals and more. I’ve spent the past 15 years studying and working in arts and entertainment. After studying illustration and graphic design at Columbia College, I switched my attention to film and video with a concentration in cinematography.

After college, I worked in LA as a producer for G4TV, a lifestyle network with a focus on video games, technology, and pop culture. At G4 I was producing, writing and directing everything from comedy and entertainment segments to live in studio celebrity interviews. I was also on the founding team of G4’s flagship show, Attack of the Show, where I covered comic books, art, music, toy culture and pretty much any weird thing they allowed me to put on the air.

After moving back to Chicago I was freelancing as a producer for a number of companies before I started my own production company Brain Killer. This was my creative outlet directing music videos, branded content, video art installations, and as a way to promote myself, I started doing art again. I started doing wheatpaste all over the city and later started painting murals. The art side took on a life of its own and I’ve painted, created art and participated in art shows for a wide variety of clients and for myself here in Chicago, Miami, New York, Austin, LA and Kansas City.

Under the BRAIN KILLER name, I’ve produced, directed and created art for a number of companies including, DMK restaurant group, Nonnina, Dark Matter Coffee, Lyft, Threadless, Red Bull, Goose Island, Baderbrau Brewing Company, The Onion, Havas and more. My most recent venture is taking a staff position as a producer with M1 Interactive. M1 creates sensory experiences by combining video, light, sound, and motion to enhance social interaction and branded media.
