About atomicpopmonkey

I founded Atomic Pop Monkey in 2000 after working several years at the Academy of Art College, FCB advertising in San Francisco, and several other small design firms and start-ups in the mid 1990’s – early 2000’s.

After moonlighting out of my bed room for several years, I decided to venture out on my own. Little did I know where that road would lead to. Since then I have worked with a large variety of clients and projects. Some of which have been nominated or won awards such as the GRAMMYs, Emmy, the Webbies, Golden Dot Award, as well as a Golden Addy for design work.

My current and previous clients include: Dave Davies (of the Kinks), Lee Ann Womack, Brian Posehn, Patton Oswalt, Ron Funches, Kenny Chesney, KLCS (Los Angeles PBS), Rykodisc, Columbia Records, Sony Records, Hollywood Records, Nickelodeon, Senator Paul Wellstone, Planned Parenthood, The Bill Hicks Estate, The Ramones, Redd Kross, Charlotte Caffey (The Go-Go’s), Barry Zito (Oakland A’s, SF Giants), The Misfits, The Muffs, Brian Eno, Big Star, The Posies, Patrick Park, Merge Records, Imperial Teen, Tracy Bonham, Phranc, Daniele Luppi, The Stinking Rose, Ronnie Milsap, Merge Records, and many more.

I’ve worked on a wide range of projects – from cd/album cover art direction, graphic design, photography, and layouts to branding, web design and coding, video editing, animation, photo retouching, illustration, merchandise design, html newsletters, WordPress sites, and beyond.
