I am a huge fan of the art site Coroflot, and have my own personal online portfolio at this site only.

I’ve gotten impressive
I recently had a request to do some tee shirt designs for the owner of a women’s apartment complex called Kensington Manor Apts, at an university in Idaho. They wanted something that they could pass out on campus to market the units and let people know its close to campus, affordable, and a great living
I’ve been doing freelance for the Art of Dance and Ballet Academy in Placentia, CA for a little over a year. I get a lot of random requests from them, but some are pretty fun! I have designed all their flyers, ads, programs etc, and my longest ongoing project has been to design all their
Charles Caleb Colton once coined the phrase: “Imitation is the best form of flattery”. Whether or not this is true, I found out today that I was subject to such “flattery” when my boss stumbled upon a competitor’s knockoff of one of my original designs! I’ve never had this happen to me before and I
Along with our trip to Little Tokyo this weekend, we took a handful of band stickers that Matt has just ordered for his band Tora!Tora!Tora! One of the great things about cities like LA is you see people leaving their mark everywhere you go. Whether its tagging, or wheat pasting, or stickers, the signs are
Its always nice when I get off work early on a sat and get to actually go do stuff. Sorta planned out and sort of on a whim, my bf decided to take me to Chin Ma Ya, one of my favorite ramen places in Little Tokyo, where we were able to walk around and
A friend of mine recently approached me about doing a redesigned logo for a friend of her’s company. I looked over the brief and wanted to do something that had the same feel as their old logo but with a more modern approach. The original logo was a one color sans serif font, very basic.
Someone at work approached me about designing her first tattoo. I guess its her late in life rebellion that she’s getting for her 50th birthday. I tried to warn her about the extreme pain of a foot/ankle tattoo, but she has her mind set! She wanted something floral, with light embellishment that incorporated her daughter’s
I’ve been doing a few interviews in the last couple weeks, seeing what new options are available to me as positions are beginning to open up. I’ve always felt that the interview process is an interesting one, as there is no standard way to be interviewed and its often surprising the things you’ll be asked
Sometimes its fun when I get an added assignment at work, especially when its something related to design. LOFT is currently doing a collaboration with 3 magazines, Glamour, Lucky, and Self, in a hope to get more promotion and host special events. Unfortunately clients are not as thrilled to buy subscriptions to the printed word,

After recently designing a logo for the blog Punching On Paper for writer Ryan Gattis, I was asked to be a part of his upcoming show (in conjuction with ISM) at Meltdown Comics in LA to celebrate the new year. It is generally believed that modern Chinese martial arts derived from two separate mountains: Shaolin
I’m finally back from my 10 day holiday break, which was good and bad in its own ways. Having time off was a splendid thing indeed, unfortunately my body decided it would be a nice time to get bronchitis. I was forced to stay in bed, rest, and recover. I must say it was some

This year I decided to do something different for my birthday, use some vacation time, and get out of the OC. My bf Matt and I traversed up the coast to the wonderful city of San Francisco. Whenever I go to a new town, the first things I’m automatically drawn to are the architecture, the
There is something very cool about being able to do creative things with your significant other. Being as we both do design, with myself being more focused on print/packaging/branding, and Matt on media/video/photo, we are usually able to collaborate on some cool projects together. Over the weekend we utilized the blue screen at his work
This last weekend the boy and I traversed down to San Diego to celebrate our one year anniversary, check out the local art scene, do a little sight seeing, and see what other kinds of trouble we could run into. Once there, we stumbled upon Old Town San Diego. It was almost like a small
One of the coolest things about being an artist is when you run into other creatives, people who create art similiar to your own, or completely different. There is a wide world of art out there, and talent truly running amuck. Among these is my great friends Scott Lanier. Although his roots are in digital
This saturday a few of us ventured out to Long Beach for their annual SoundWalk, which coincided with the opening for the Robots and Angels Show at Alley 425. It was a truly interesting experience.
