I graduated from Parsons School of Design in 1996 with a BFA in Illustration. Since then I’ve done motion and design work for Harper Collins, Microsoft, Showtime, and the Netflix animated series StoryBots.
I am the Founder and Creative Director of the boutique Ann Arbor-based design and branding agency Woodhouse Creative.
I co-directed and edited the award-winning documentary Yellow Brick Road, and my animated short, The Forbidden Forest, was adapted into a music video for Ghost Box Records’ Beautify Junkyards.
My debut collection of short stories, A General Theory of Tears, was published by Stalking Horse Press in 2023.
I record electronic music under the names Dolmen Moon and Void.
I live and work in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
I consider my work to be a synthesis of all the things I’ve absorbed in my life. So to give credit where credit is due, these are the artists who’ve most influenced me:
