I was born at a very young age. Now, I'm a graphic designer for Salem, where I do stuff for CCM magazine, Preaching magazine, and YouthWorker Journal. Occassionally, I'll write music reviews for CCM which apparently draw the ire of readers. I play electric guitar and bass.



I am currently writing and drawing an epic cartoon novel called Three Brothers Tycho. It should be done in about ten years, but you can check it out at www.threebrotherstycho.com.



I like chicken tikki masala, coffee, and kalamata olives, but not at the same time. Also, you should visit andyscates.com.
