My passion for skateboarding has lead me on a journey around the world, opening my eyes to all sorts of diffrent people, culture and art. Cultivating different types of techniques along the way to capture, express and share these experiences.
Over the last couple years i've been screen printing, its "hands on" process has got me hooked. Just like skating, Ive always been very intrigued by photography and the endless learning curve. I get that same feeling from screen printing. This is a rad new method of printing photos ive taken throughout my career and travels that lets you see my world as i see it. Although this method is tedious and time consuming, I really enjoy the trial and error process of creating.
This latest series "Z-TREE" was inspired from where i grew up, Cape Cod.
I grew up riding dirt bikes, Bmx, and on to skateboarding which took me around the world several times.
I moved back to Cape Cod from NYC a few years ago and have been focused on creating my own Brand. Something Real, something authentic, something i feel is missing from the industry.
