HOWDY: Jeremiah is a freelance designer, illustrator, musician, teacher, and all around fun guy (*finger guns*). He spends his days designing for Crosstown Arts and the Crosstown Concourse. His nights are spent freelancing or performing music as "The Ellie Badge," sometimes as a full band and sometimes as a one-man-band style thing with lots of live-loops and fun stuff. Jeremiah also enjoys just chillin', ya know?
Fun fact: Jeremiah also gets a lot of anxiety from writing his own bio.
SOME BACKSTORY: After three years Jeremiah received his MFA in graphic design from the University of Memphis in 2016. He really enjoys teaching and hopes to do more in the future. While attending Delta State University Jeremiah was vice-president and then president of GrammyU and Art Director of the Kappa Pi Art Fraternity. He graduated in 2013 with a BFA focusing on Graphic Design with a minor in Printmaking.
IN CONCLUSION: Jeremiah is an avid and unironic fan of Star Wars, superheroes, The Legend of Zelda, pop music, Overwatch, not-so-pop music, pizza, Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, and cartoons. Jeremiah is married to a very talented designer and illustrator named Kayla, and they have three cats named Tokyo Lunchbox, Juniper Crimes, and Vampire Guggenheim that they are very fond of.
