Biography


Born in Upstate NY and raised in Montclair, NJ. Attended Antioch College in Yellow Springs, OH for two years before dropping out. Currently working at the Antioch College Bookstore as the Assistant Manager as I work towards making a living off my crazy stories, be they prose or sequential art. I'm divorced, the father of a high-functioning Autistic 7 year old girl, a huge geek, and quite possibly very deranged.
