Always interested in the slightly offbeat, strange or even just a little bizarre, but curious none the less. Been a huge fan of ground crumbling, air shredding, dimension warping, blazing loud guitar metal. It inspires me, keeps my imagination running at full throttle. I have always enjoyed a good comic with awesome art and well written story lines. DC and Marvel along with Mad and Cracked Magazine were my inspirations. Currently impressed with Crossgen's Sigil series.

Strongly opinionated, hard headed, stubborn and yet totally loveable and gentle. I live happily with my lovely, organized wife and two creative, rocket fueled sons.

Increasingly enjoying praise and worship to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. I owe everything to Him. He has helped me to see things in a whole new light. I always had a feeling that there was something bigger, something wild, something more than we could ever imagine.

I have had jobs doing everything from trucking to graphic design to cab driving to construction to manufacturing, etc.

In my local church I have done everything from puppetry, drama, teaching (toddlers to grade 5), praise and worship, publishing and audio media. The part I most enjoyed was being able to assist the praise and worship by playing guitar.

I thank my Heavenly Father for the abilities that He's given me and the opportunities to use them.

The one thing I want to see happen this year is Ekklesia to make it to print, to have a huge distribution and to minister to millions (dream big, man, dream big). This comic has been in the works for the last 10 years at least. By "in the works" I mean I have drawn and redrawn this episode until it has taken on the current look. Originally it was a lot worse (oh yeah, I mean real bad, and no I will not let anyone see it).
