Girls, lock away mom when John's around because he is such a charming catch that she'll never let you hear the end of it if you don't snatch him right up. Such a sense of humor that'll keep you in stitches, laughing until your lungs ache. 

So much talent, wit, charm, style, and the intelligence to back it up. This native Brooklyn-ite earned his chops as a graphics wizard for those big NY ad agencies. His interest in Asian & African folk arts and Cubism are apparent in his own artistic style, but his forte is clearly computer-aided graphics, where it becomes part of his design aesthetic.

I am very lucky to have met John and managed to infect him with my enthusiasm about Squirrelbait, which wouldn't have been the same without his involvement. The sum total of all I know about web design & authoring I learned from John, who took the time to help me in the SoMa design office of Activsupport Inc., where he does this sort of this for money.
