About

From the rise of skateboarding in Ghana to Idris Elba telling a story about the Sex Pistols, his goal has been to help create work that makes his friends and family proud.
When he’s not scribbling creative ideas on restaurant napkins, he’s booking tattoo appointments, belly laughing with his loved ones, and finding the best food spots in Brooklyn.
