Description: Hi, my name is Brian. I make things. Sometimes screened, sometimes offset, sometimes perfect spontaneous moments. I am an occasional contributing artist to the Indypendent, a member of the ADC in NYC and a previous member of Emergency Arts collective in Chelsea. I read. I vote, and like most people in my demographic, I blog. Previously I've worked at the Pushpin Group, James Victore Inc., and the Valentine Group. I am an adjunct typography professor at Brooklyn's 3rdWard. My clients are conscious entrepreneurs who include the likes of the FEED Project, ThirdRailCoffee and the White House Organic Farm Project. I'm found living, working and riding my bike in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
