Everyone loves working with Larry. He’s principled, yet pragmatic and productive. If I could work with one designer again on a new project, it would be Larry.

Life

When I'm not wrangling pixels for The Man, I like to go snowboarding, play drums in our band MERWULF, record music, design stickers and t-shirts and stuff, hang with my fam, train and coach Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and ride my Vespa all over the place.
