He has studied comics making with Keith Mayerson, Carl Potts and Josh Bayer at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, NY and Pratt University in Brooklyn.

In this summer’s comic book camp, we will learn all the steps to making a comic book page. Students will learn visual storytelling, exciting drawing, comics techniques and study classic comics and manga. We will explore comics’ thumbnails, sketching, inking and color! We will learn how to create a dynamic story with a beginning, middle, and end. We will learn the tips and tricks of the pros to create dynamic panel compositions and compelling action.

Each day students will work on their pages so by the end of the week’s camp we will publish a comic featuring all of the student’s work!
