Born in 1997, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Jon quickly recognized a true disdain for the average modern working American lifestyle. His father, an HR director, imbued into him early, the suffering, and immense loss, working a hollow corporate job can bring a person. Inspired by his father, Jon forged a different path and grew a passion for artistic expression. Inspired by comics, cartoons, and early 2000's digital media, he found himself driven to contribute to the world of art.
Jon attended the Maryland Institute College of Art, endured a 4-year fever dream, and graduated with a BFA in Animation. He quickly built a varying and robust resume that would lead to his attraction for mixed media and help hone his eclectic style. He would go on to explore the relationship between medium, interest, and lived experience.
Currently working out of Denver, Colorado. He enjoys the mountains.
