Work:
I am a graphic designer/artist by trade. I work in product development, packaging design, advertisement design, 3D modeling and texturing of products. My Resume
Art:
I exhibit my artwork at different shows around town. I sell orginal oil and accrylic paintings and have made 18X24 posters of a few pieces that I sell as a set. Here are some photos of some of my work... I usually describe it as somewhere between surreal and abstract. If you happen to see the first one (Hero) anywhere, please let me know. It was stolen from the Hilton Garden Inn in downtown Indianapolis after I had it and two other pieces on display for a 500 race party over Memorial Day weekend.

Music:
I currently play in a few accoustic groups. and try to stick close to home when gigging.
I played drums and percussion for a few years with the RIch Hardesty Band and have played clubs/venues all over the place: Indiana, Illinois, Ohio,Wisconsin, Michigan, Jamaica, California, etc... I still play with Rich occasionally when he comes back through town. I've recently been booking a lot of gigs with Wild Dale (Jeff Day), and have in the past (and might possibly in the future) played with Dave Cocalis (from Real Eyes) & Pam Thrash (Bloomington Radio DJ), Polly B and the Jam, Bahama Llamma, Dark House Sweet, Kelley Eisenhower, Jason Michael Thomas (X-Ray Roger Jimmy) and Steve Griffey.
In addition to drums and percussion... I play guitar and sing & love to write music... Here is a sampling of songs I wrote and recorded at home... a slow compilation of ideas gathered. I plan on re-recording them some day in a more qualified studio that will produce a better quality.. Some are recorded on a 4 track and some on my computer. At this stage, I'm performing all parts except Jeff "Wild Dale" Day is playing Bass and Keys on "Sweet Intoxication". I want to eventually enlist the help of my talented friends to put flavor and direction in some of my songs that I wouldn't get doing it all myself.

Web Development: Here is a website I created for a school project in 2002. I've since lost the hard drive that the skeletal structure of the site is stored, so I can't update it with my newer stuff. You can still view good graphic design samples, older artwork, and a couple of flash games I created for school projects.
Who I'd like to meet: Everyone.. anyone... I'm pretty easy to get along with. I think most people have something interesting to bring to the table... I like to inspire and be inspired, and occasionally share a beer and a laugh.

Thanks for adding Mumbai Taxi. We’ll keep you posted on all our trips. Or, you can track us at twitter.com. Yes, times are hard-- Unemployment in Indiana tops ten percent. Young people are struggling to stay in college because graduating is terrifying... Been there before, in the middle of another painful recession in the 80's-- The answer was reggae music-- I brought reggae bands to stages from PA to Iowa, and points in between. Those years were spent in the groove, poor but irie! Now, we need music more than ever before-- Even with hope on the horizon, it's going to be a long haul this time. Mumbai Taxi is trying to ease the pain-- Yes, there will be weekends when a cover at a club, and the price of drinks, will be a bit dear... Our solution: HOUSE CONCERTS!!! We need to play, and you need trips, Taxi trips-- A cosmic convergence of positive iration! Let's declare a new SUMMER OF LOVE-- Of Mumbai Taxi psychedelic Mambo, Tropicalia, Soukous, Soweto Beat & Rockin' Raga Reggae in living rooms, back yards, deep woods, concert halls, gardens, festivals-- Wherever there is a need to tune in, turn on, and take a (Mumbai) Taxi trip! Contact us soon-- The calendar is filling up.
