I love to make things.

When asked, I describe my career title as Graphic Designer, but a more accurate title would be Thing Maker. By day, I run The Bloc Creative, where I specialize in design and illustration for filmmakers and musicians. I’m also a photographer, printmaker, animator, seamstress, and have tried my hand at just about everything else. A few of my varied projects are listed below, with more in the works.

I live and work in Burbank, CA, but I grew up barefoot on a farm in Arkansas. On my 700 square foot California farm, you’ll find David the husband, Oliver the terrier, and Theo the rabbit, along with my unofficial pets Skippy the squirrel and the Pigbirds, the flock of fat hummingbirds I’ve spoiled.

I’m a follower of Christ and a lover of truth, and I keep a quote from C.S. Lewis in the front of my notebook:

“No man who values originality will ever be original. But try to tell the truth as you see it, try to do any bit of work as well as it can be done for the work’s sake, and what men call originality will come unsought.”
