In the northeastern corner of the state of Oklahoma, dotted with lakes and incised with rivers, in the uplift of the Ozark Mountains, is the Cherokee Nation. This is where I was born and raised. An only child, a Cherokee, a son of a working class family on 16 acres of land. With room to think, process, experiment and create.

Since getting a B.F.A. in Graphic Design and an M.F.A. in Visual Communication I have thought about, written about, spoken about, and practiced design for over a decade.

I am currently a Senior Brand Designer at High Alpha, who pioneered the venture studio model, where I create thoughtful and effective brands for software companies.

I live in midtown Tulsa, Oklahoma with my wife, Megan and our two boys Arlo and Oak. They mean the world to me and can literally already beat me at board games despite being 5 and 3 years old.
