Punchline: I died in 2015 and woke up as Captain Casual. Literally.
Now I’m on a mission of creating love and happiness with my artworks and perspectives.
I consider myself an extremely grateful person, blessed with a second chance at life…and getting to do what I love!
After college I went to work at a big finance firm, specializing in stocks and charts. I was one of those people sitting in front of a wall of computers screaming into a phone about the stock market. Fast forward to 2015, living unhealthy and stressed to the max, I flatlined in the back of an ambulance and woke up to them cutting off my shirt. I woke up as Captain Casual. I was a changed man. Perspective and understanding about one of life's biggest mysteries. I decided to spend the rest of my life keeping score by smiles instead of dollars. Using my colors and artwork as a method to spread this happiness. I’m tie dying entire buildings with rainbow sunsets and mixing urban graffiti with unconventional pop art.
Since then I’ve gotten to do some amazing things and work with really cool companies all over the World. Created an entire production color palette for Louis Vuitton in the Spring of ‘22; along with a mural and original painting series for the Miami Design District Louis Vuitton. Partnered with Nike to hand paint 150 pairs of cleats and give them to youth football teams in Dallas, Texas. Urban Decay in Los Angeles, Kiehl’s in New York. Under Armour and Steph Curry, Levis and Tilly’s, Neiman Marcus, Effen Vodka and a handful of others.
I couldn’t do any of it without your support. I appreciate you stopping by to read more about me and check out my work. I hope you have a casual day.
Don’t Forget to Have Fun!
