I am your Swiss Army Knife. I have prolifically (and often obsessively) worked in creative design & multimedia for over 15 years; integrating print, web, video, and audio. When I am not working on my own weird projects, I offer my talents and skills to other independent artists, musicians, filmmakers, actors, directors, and the occasional malfunctioning android.

My aim is to help creators in any way that I can, and on any random day that might include:

• Websites (XHTML, PHP, CSS, Flash, and Custom WordPress-Powered Sites, like this one!)
• Shooting & Editing HD Video w/ Chroma Key (Commercials, Virals, Music Videos)
• Recording & Editing Audio (Looping, Voiceovers, Sound Effects, and Scoring)
• Print Advertising / Business Cards / Flyers / Posters / T-Shirts
• Digital Photography (Headshots, Et Cetera)

I’m a one-man operation and I do this full-time, so you won’t get a lot of inane administrative buzzwords and phrases when working with me. I’m down-to-earth and enjoy what I do without pretense.

My software arsenal: Adobe Creative Suite (Indesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Dreamweaver, and After Effects), Final Cut, Cubase, and Drumkit From Hell. All proudly up-to-date and officially licensed! Imagine that!

I have worked exclusively on Apple Computers since my Atari 1040STe was retired in 1998.

Some of you may already know I am occasionally a mighty performance artist and musician under the pseudonyms: Sir Millard Mulch & Dr. Zoltan Øbelisk. Through that medium, I have performed, collaborated, stood around in a room, or engaged in creative business ventures of questionable importance with Marco Minnemann, Virgil Donati, Nick D’Virgilio, Morgan Agren, Paul Mazurkiewics, Trey Spruance, Steve Vai, Eman Laerton, Dave Meros, Nils Frykdahl, Lale Larson, Larry Boothroyd, Devin Townsend, Brendon Small, Will Maier, and Eric Fensler. I’ve occasionally shown up in Modern Drummer, DRUM!, Kerrang, and Decibel Magazine.

I recently signed a book deal with MWP, publishers of Save The Cat! and Hardware Wars. My book should be available everywhere in 2010. My articles / essays have been published in 2600 (The Hacker Quarterly), mental_floss, and INK19. As an offbeat journalist I have interviewed Katy Perry & The Matrix Production Team, 1999 Playboy Playmate of the Year Heather Kozar, Nina Gordon of Veruca Salt, Trey Spruance of Mr. Bungle & Faith No More, Billy Sheehan, Devin Townsend of Strapping Young Lad, Nils Frykdahl of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Negativland, Brooks Wackerman of Bad Religion, Rock Guitarist Steve Vai, Tim Soya, Ani DiFranco’s Merch Girl, and Ween.

I am a Vegan, an advocate of Mass Transit & Bicycling, and a supporter of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and KUSC. I also do a lot of Yoga.
