What up doe (classic Detroit greeting)! I would like to work with you. Why should you hire me? Because I’m good. I am multi-skilled and multi-talented. I’ve worn numerous hats and I made them fit. I've worked in many different industries and am always willing to learn. I can be the most valuable of team players or I can lead a squad to victory. During my career as a professional, I’ve walked the corporate route working as a production artist, graphic designer and art director for companies such as DraftFCB, Manga Entertainment, Universal Music Group, and Cedar Grove Books. I have also been employed as a graphic designer, animator, art director and graphic novelist for educational institutions such as the University of Illinois - Chicago and the Smithsonian National Museum of African Art.In 1999, I started working for Griot Enterprises, a publishing company / visual communication studio and created its flagship property, The Horsemen. I also maintain The Afrosoul Chronicles, a blog about comics, pop culture, politics and race. I have had numerous one-man and group shows, art directed and published over 10 books and have been invited to speak about my work and the representation of race and culture at various institutions including the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Ohio State University. In fact, The Horsemen: Divine Intervention and the anthology 4 Pages 16 Bars: A Visual Mixtape are used as textbooks for classes at OSU.In my career as an educator, I’ve been an Assistant Professor at the Illinois Institute of Art – Schaumburg and a Visiting Professor at DeVry University teaching courses in animation, multimedia, graphic design and video game design. Currently, I am a Part – Time Lecturer at Chicago State University and recently served as graphic designer on the television show Chicago Med.So, with all that said, take a look at my portfolio at your earliest convenience. I would be an excellent addition to your team. Cheers!
