Chris was born in his parent’s bedroom in Massachusetts during the summer of 1986. Since graduating from Syracuse University, where he took interest in graphic design, art direction and packaging, Chris was hired on as an Associate Art Director for Saatchi & Saatchi in NYC. He left there in the summer of 2010 to become the head designer at Johnny Cupcakes Inc.

Chris is one of the few talented designers to display an excellent balance between solving a client’s needs and adhering to the design and the designer’s integrity. His work brings together both a deeply-rooted knowledge of his craft and a voracious curiosity – a levity and playfulness that help him to elevate the everyday into something iconic. Chris' expansive visual language and inventive solutions are both accredited to his enthusiasm for reading and taking the time to learn about something else other than design.

His work is full of tiny nods – to pop art, to 1940’s cinema, to graffiti and folk art – but executed with a clarity of vision which renders his pieces singular. His pursuit is the heartfelt interloping of image and text and a sharp, left hand turn when you were sure the road ran straight for miles.

In his short professional career Chris has already provided design and art direction for clients such as Johnny Cupcakes, GE, Wendy’s, Fiber One, Livespeakr, Sarah Lawrence College, Nidecker Snowboards, LG, Smirnoff, and Samsung.
