Inc. Magazine, Vegas Seven, Adweek, party!


A couple of things just for you, internet! First up, an illo for Inc. Magazine about Ad Agencies investing in start-ups and how it can be a mutually beneficial relationship. I had a ton of fun with this piece :3 AD: Sarah Garcea

AD: Chris Jones


And last but not least, some spots for Adweek! Working with weeklies is both awesome and daunting because of the super quick deadlines, but I’m pretty happy with these (especially that shredder on the right)!

AD: Ron Goodman

In other news, I'm moving my studio into room 502 at the Pencil Factory in Greenpoint, Brooklyn! It's super exciting since I've been working alone since graduating from college. w000!
