BIOGRAPHY

About Me

It’s true—Jimmy is tall. And that’s usually what people first ask him about. But there’s a lot more going on in his life. He’s a musician-turned-art-director who has been in the business since the internet boom, way back in ‘99. Since then, he’s been busy helping national and global clients— Universal Orlando, Carnival, Grey Goose, ADT, Miami Heat, Coca-Cola, Guinness, Mentos, Virgin, Morotola, Diageo, vitaminwater, X Games, and BBVA for starters—to realize their hopes, dreams, and bottom lines. He’s happiest when inventing something brand new and seeing it manifest in the real world—preferably with a cyclops in the mix, if the creative concept allows. And just to save you the trouble of asking, he’s 6’5” (77 inches) and possibly still growing.

On the inside, at least.

Side Projects

I love working on projects.  It's just something I consistently crave.  From music, games, art, to books - I'm always looking to learn and create something unique.  Here are a few things I've been involved with through the years.

Lately I've been doing a lot of mixed media art and posting it to my art focused IG.  The work ranges from digital to anolog collage along with figurative and abstract concepts.

fivesixsixfive
fivesixsixfive was a band that consisted of me (6'5") and my curly haired best friend - Seth Brody (5"6").  We made beats and played indie rock over them.  We produced a couple albums in the early 2000's and have been meaning to make a third ever since.  

Brubbies

Brubbies
Brubbies is a book series that I write with my wife, Lisa and my friend Daniel Goel - an insanely talented illustrator.  It's about two brothers that are discovering the world around them, realizing along the way that it's great having someone to share it with.
