Bio

Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, I grew up cultivating my natural artistic ability by watching the creative processes of my father (a portrait artist) and eldest brother (a pioneering Graffiti artist). Having received no formal art training, they instead were my artistic teachers and technical advisors. Over the years, I’ve participated in many group and solo exhibitions, winning numerous awards including, most recently, winner of the 2025 Diversity Gallery juried show, presented by Norfolk Botanical Gardens. 

Previously I’ve served as co-curator of 1199SEIU Gallery in NYC, have appeared as a guest on the television program "SteelStacks Live!", was hired as a courtroom sketch artist for the Pocono Record Newspaper, and served as director of ARTSPACE Gallery in Stroudsburg, PA. I’ve also published a volume of poetic verse. 

My work has been featured in numerous galleries and museums, print and online publications, and has been featured as cover art for a magazine, music CD, and even a book. I’m currently working on a series of paintings exploring my passion for fatherhood—what I consider a love letter to my children.
