That's my favorite theoretical physicist Michio Kaku. After many years of writing Michio into ideas it finally worked.

I started my career in 2010 in New York City and in fall 2018 moved to Portland Oregon – hello nature. I'm currently working as a freelance ACD Art Director and hustling on the side to transform America from a toilet paper nightmare into a bidet utopia (Whisper).

I'm available remotely for freelance ideation, creative productions, pitches, and consulting. You can find the work of my creative half, Shloimy Notik, here.
