Hi! I'm skull. I got my start in the late 90s with expage, Angelfire, and Geocities, and kinda just kept going.

My long design journey has taken me through web, print, motion, and ux. I'm having a great time!

Also, you gotta look at this site on desktop. It looks way better there.

Stream & Broadcast Designer

For a long while, I ran a little stream gfx shop that was pretty successful!

Whenever I had time, I'd take small-to-medium stream graphics comms for streamers with audience sizes ranging from "just friends" to upwards of 2,000 regular viewers. My proudest moment as a stream designer is probably the guy who had me design and build a whole Mega Man X-themed suite of animated stream graphics and overlays, and the first night he went live with it, he broke his PB. The second he broke the record, he shouted, "IT WAS THE OVERLAY!"

This was a fun project!

Geocities Webmaster 😎

Would you believe I created dozens of Expage, Geocities, and Angelfire websites in the late 90s? I became immediately obsessed with the idea of creating for the internet the second I got access to it. In my case, this would have been the summer between middle school and high school, taking weekly bike rides to the local library with my best friend to update our Gundam Wing fansites.
