About Keith

Born in Chicago, Illinois, from an early age I was obsessed with two things, creating art and consuming books. These two things spured me on to study painting, illustration, history and literature. At Carthage College in Wisconsin I earned a degree in Fine Arts focused on painting/illustration more because the amazing things I have since learned to do in computers just didn't exist. Hell, we hand made collages with glue and ink.

After college, in search of a career I found print and web design, the latter which consumes most of my days now. Over the years I have worked in print designs, marketing campaigns, interactive education products, audio production and editing, video production and editing, photography, illustration, book layout, technical writing, web design, and web application development.

In my spare time I have also dabbled in independent publishing and writing, creating two traditional role-playing games, one novel/game hybrid, and two comic books. Many of these things you can find throughout the site here or on my regular passion, conspiracyofshadows.com.

The next couple of months prove to be pretty hectic and interesting for me. I am working on a final edition of Conspiracy of Shadows and an online story engine-game-bag of awesome. One before the other of course.
