About Me.
With renewed purpose I aligned myself with individuals and companies that understood the value of the growing "sneakerhead"subculture. My mission to create engaging art that pushes the sneaker movement forward.
Since then I've created brand recognition packages via social media in the form of promotional art for clients such as Reebok Classics, JackThreads , and Forcefield NYC. These packages have been used to enhance product launches, influence consumer sales and increase brand morale.
