Creative Director/Copywriter
Art Direction
Let's not play games: my illustration skills are super not good. But just because I can't use my sausage-like appendages to make images doesn't mean I can't use my words or sketches to get someone to do it for me. These are some of the side thingies I have either designed or art directed.

Posters
Sometimes you throw a party. Sometimes you throw an annual party. Sometimes you throw a crazy annual party that includes shaving off your beard in front of 250 screaming people. And sometimes you need posters to promote those parties.
To send me off on my 2018-2019 vagabond adventure, I asked Michelle Cho to make me "the most vaporwave fucking poster ever... but put my beard on a statue."

Good Copy Is Sticky
Let us stand at the edge of the grand canyon, throw our hands to the sky, and scream our primal truth: WE LOVE STICKERS. Two of these I commissioned based on my (bad) drawings; the rest I made myself.
2018. Wanting something a little socially conscious to give away at Burning Man (especially to the high-flying execs in their all-expense paid camps), I sketched a shitty version of this on a napkin and gave it to Meredith Alden Lewis, who turned it into actual art.
2018. When your friends' parents give them wedding day advice as good as this, how can you not turn it into a bumper sticker?
2013. Have you ever driven in Los Angeles? Then you understand why I would make this bumper sticker. It continues to be a hit among my friends, and every few years I do a new printing to give out as gifts. If you don't get the joke, click to get in on it.
