I’m a poster designer, screenprinter, amateur carpenter, and beginning architect, living and working in Providence, Rhode Island, USA.

This ‘updates’ page is where I’m keeping track of progress on the projects I’m working on:

• a print series about everyday spaces
• a kitchen renovation at a cooperative house
• exploration of ideas about architecture & construction
• posters & graphics
• drawing & thinking
• participatory and collaborative projects
• mentoring high schoolers (as well as other people!)
• reading
• learning

These projects are my livelihood — some financial (monetary or barter-economy), some intellectual, some emotional. They keep me crazy, but, along with the extended creative community of amazing people in which they are all rooted (see the links to the right), they keep me alive.

What am I to do?
Work, but I demand that it be mine.
Somehow, I have to shake free enough to determine and do a work that is mine. Determining and doing a work that is mine, implies living a life that is mine; a living that only I can make. The living that I must do cannot be given to me in any sense.
