ABOUT ME

I was born breech on a full moon and haven't looked back since.

I like dumb ideas, and the dumber the better. When I'm brainstorming with a partner, I like to ask, "what's something dumb we can do?" Dumb Ways to Die was dumb. Be Stupid was pretty dumb, too. Dumb ideas aren't just more fun and entertaining, they're smart and strategic in disguise. And the best ideas almost always start out as dumb ones.

If you think my work is dumb, or that this bio is dumb, please get in touch.
