HOW DID THIS HAPPEN, YOU ASK?

One: Cartoons
Two: Books
Three: A pencil

That about sums it up.
I spent my childhood watching cartoons (still watch them to this day), reading books, and drawing the characters I saw.
If something made me laugh or caught my eye, I was likely to try and draw it.

I learned to read at five and never stopped. Writing was another story.

As a teenager, I occasionally tried my hand at lyrics and poetry. Mind you, I did it solely to impress girls. Whether they were any good is debatable.
Whether the girls were impressed is another matter entirely.

SO WHAT DID THEY WANT FROM ME?

Soon after, Mr. Odd and Miss Loopy developed personalities, opinions, and a remarkable ability to turn simple situations into complete disasters.
Simply keeping them confined to a few drawings wouldn’t work.

One idea led to another. Then another.

Somewhere along the way, The Oddaloops grew into a full-length graphic novel.

A story built around the two things they do best: disagreeing and getting into trouble.

And much to my surprise, I discovered something else. I loved writing.

THE RESPONSIBLE YEARS

I attended New York’s High School of Art and Design, then studied graphic design at FIT.

For more than 20 years, I’ve owned and operated Vegga Consulting, where I’ve worked in web design, development, branding, and digital marketing.

These days, I’m fortunate to have a great team around me.
That leaves more time to write, create, and make questionable pencil decisions.
