From 2002-2006 my illustration and cartooning work had been printed in sixteen foreign editions and fifteen different languages of Maxim.
My work's been in Maxim Magazine's various imprints close to 100 times including the prestigious "Best of Maxim Issue." I was the only artist with three pieces in Maxim's Issue 100 Collectors Edition. I've worked directly with Maxim design teams in America (half a dozen different designers over the years), the UK, Hong Kong, and Germany.
I've done regular strips (A DAY IN THE LIFE- which I also wrote, ADVICE FROM BEYOND) back page art (ACROSS THE USA), icons, 3-panel strips, logos, portraiture, spots, diagrams, fake tattoos, concept writing, "Where's Waldo Style" crowd scenes, features including the internationally popular Office Olympics (which was later used as a premise on NBC's The Office), The Great State Debate, Death Awaits, and How To's.
