Area(s) of Interest or Expertise:

Hi everyone! Character design is my strongest skill. I can draw backgrounds and anything else to finish the design or story as well. Super interested in creating amazing stories (parables) that point to God. Stories that will get people reading the Bible again. Reading truth again. Comics, movies, games are some of my interests.

My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)

I grew up in church. My earliest memory of drawing was in church, with my yellow, pink eraser #2 pencil. I have always been fascinated that man can create stories that are not reality (flying men with a red cape for example). As I got older, when I read the Bible and comics…I almost always see the opposite messages that both portrayed. Bible says our world was created by God (saved by faith in Jesus), while comics seem to be aligned with the evolution narrative (or other ‘gods’ createdthe world). Bible says follow God, mainstream comics follow your ‘heart’. I grew up with comics and games. I’m tired of the anti-Christ message of the world. It ‘tastes’ horrible when one is eating Organic, non-gmo word of God. I want to create something for my kids and fellow believers of all ages. Cook up something easy to ‘digest’. Creation is an epic story in itself, from Genesis to Revelation. Jesus gave me hope and my life back when I was going through ‘meaninglessness’ of life phase. I believe a lot of our fellow brothers and sister just need that hope as well.

Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)

It would be creating my own biblically based comic. Writing and drawing my own biblically based comics.

Favorite Comic Creators:
