In case you haven’t guessed, I’m obsessed with art. I eat, sleep, and breathe all aspects of it. But when I’m not reading about it, looking for inspiration, or creating something new, you can find me on the water, bowfishin’ or froggin’. I’ve gathered up a team of the best in the biz—some have been with me since the beginning, some I’ve picked up along the way. Meet my pack.
I’ve been working with Dane for over two decades. I’ve done it all—from customer service, managing and processing orders, art separations, and currently graphic design as the Senior Art Director. But it’s not all work when you truly enjoy what you do. My weekends are spent with friends and family, most likely tailgating at my alma mater, LSU (Hey Fighting Tigers!). I’ve lived in Greater New Orleans my entire life and love crafting, jigsaw puzzles, and Disney!
I joined forces with Dane right after I graduated from Kansas City Art Institute. While I get to immerse myself in art every day, as the Art Director my number one goal is to make sure everything, and everyone, stays on track. When I’m not guiding the team of artists, I can usually be found guiding my team through an adventure we’ve created in Dungeons and Dragons. I also love a good whiskey.
I dabble in a bit of everything—from packing and shipping orders, making sure the office is free from clutter, and every file has a home. I was born and raised in New Orleans and currently reside in Louisiana’s Northshore. I’m a boat and concert enthusiast, a die-hard LSU Tigers and New Orleans Saints (Geaux Tigers/Who Dat!) fan, and spend my time hanging out by the lake with family and friends.
I don’t want to toot my own horn, but I have the best job in the office: Artist. I get the freedom to draw and paint every day, creating the artwork you know and love. I’ve lived on the Westbank of New Orleans most of my life and enjoy movies and pulp fiction art. I met Dane several decades ago and began working with him in 2001.
I would definitely recommend this artwork to anyone in the business. Having access to a stock art library makes it so easy to create orders. It’s such a quick process to pick a design and customize it. It also cuts down your prep time. If you have a big order of 50-60 shirts and only have two or three days, you can choose a design, show it to the customer, and start production.The graphics are beautiful, and the colors are amazing.

The T-Shirt Artwork Simplified trainingbook is GREAT. I’m on the last example in Vector Artwork and it’s really showing me the ropes. I completed all the artwork up to the “Goal” and amhalfway through drawing shapes of various colors. I can hardly stop doing the work—it draws me in, and time just passes. Man! Thanks.
