My professional life of putting words and pictures together has taken me on adventures around the world. I taught manga at Technos University in Tokyo; illustration at Oskar Kokoschka's School of Vision in Salzburg; and lectured on creating comics and epubs in Australia, China, the United Kingdom, Japan, Egypt, New Zealand, Iceland, Ireland, Mexico and across the United States. I studied with leading illustrators such as Luis Murschetz, Christopher Moeller, Scott McCloud and Matt Kindt. As co-founder of the (r)Evolutionary (e)Books Press, I keynoted at the Guadalajara Book Festival and Camex while publishing more than twenty award-winning books. In addition, I received a prestigious National Endowment for the Arts fellowship; grants from the NEA, the IAC, and the Governor's International Exchange Program; residencies from the Ragdale Foundation, New Pacific Studio (NZ), the ISBK (Austria), Gurtenard House (Ireland), the 1st International Book Symposium (Egypt), Gullkistan Center for Creativity (Iceland) and Technos International (Japan); and top honors in several international art competitions. My clients include IBM, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the New York Public Library, the Lewis & Clark Library System, the Illinois Library Association, Purdue University, McKendree University and Oklahoma State University.
