For the past 15 years, I have studied design of various types. Starting out as one of the most passionate and bloody hardcore drummers on the planet, I gained extensive experience in the music and recording industry. Jamming, touring, teaching, recording, I have done it all. This is design! Design in the form of rhythmic creation and stirring the human soul. Sticks are the brush and the drums are the canvas. Throughout my music career, I have played all forms of music from rock and metal in shady bars and basements, to praise and worship in spirit filled churches and everything in between, from coffee shops to arenas. I also took time to study the theories of world drumming, including African and Latin rhythm making as well as tribal drumming amongst aboriginal people. I have worked extremely hard over the years to perfect my drumming craft and still do whenever I can between my other passions.

Now to graphics, multimedia and photography. With 7+ years working in the industry, I have grown technically and artistically. Studying Multimedia Design and Communication in 2003, I learned the important fundamentals in digital design and technology. Later moving to Fine Arts at the University of Manitoba, I got back to tradition, learning the value of traditional media, as well as being inspired like never before! Eventually, the photography bug slipped in and I began shooting like crazy, never leaving the house without a DSLR over my shoulder. Moving to Toronto in 2006, I went to work starting out as a freelance graphic designer for various companies and ending up at Rossignol and Associates. At Rossignol, I was put in charge of much of the production artwork and design created for Mirvish Productions (Canada's largest theatre company), managing, producing and creating; newspaper ads, billboards, flyers and all things related to marketing some of the top theatre productions in the world. My work at Rossignol has been featured throughout the Toronto area, as well as many major publications throughout Canada and abroad.

Now, through this experience, I have learned that inspiration can come from anything. Drums, nature, people, travel... basically all that life throws at you. Now throw something back. Create something...
Here's a little inspiration.

Cheers!
