He is a son of retired US Navy Cryptologists. His childhood was spent moving around the world, a privilege of colonial imperialism that engendered his love of culture and advocacy for tolerance. His work ranges from performance and video to sculpture and installation, exhibiting abroad and at home. He is a transmedia artist and creates future realms whose bedrock is in our present experience.
