Upstate NY, but reside in Charlotte, NC

I freelance and also work full time for a company designing headwear and apparel for mass and mid tier retail stores.
What are your Current Project(s)?
Right now I am doing some identity development for a couple of NHL teams.
Who would you love to work with?
Maybe Kidrobot or Medicom. I think it would be cool to see how my 2D work would translate to the 3D world. In general, any like minded individuals interested in putting something out there. The door is always open.
If you had to give all your sneakers away to charity except for one pair, which ones would you keep?
I doubt even a hobo would want a pair of my sneakers when I get through with them. I wear my shit. I do have a pair of Air Max 90’s that are about 5 years old that are still hanging around. I’d probably keep those.

Leonard Cohen, Ill Bill, Tomahawk, Queens of the Stone Age, DOOM
What’s your Favorite Charlotte food?
The Crab Soup at Eddie’s Place
What’s your Favorite Charlotte hangout?
The Penguin is pretty much a weekly tradition for my family. Good atmosphere, great food, AND cheap beer.
What are your Pet Peeves?
Making excuses
Shout outs?
My little man D and little girl ZoZo.
