When I started playing Eve I owned my own creative agency and I had very little time to actually play, except on weekends. I took a three-month break when I closed the business in early 2012 and since then I’ve been working as a business consultant primarily, in various capacities, for a wide variety of companies, agencies, and non-profits. I also started getting back into Illustration and my first big project was working with CCP on two sets of spaceship illustrations they sold as posters back in 2015 and 2016. Truthfully my life is intertwined with Eve. My wife and I have traveled all over the world to various player meets, and we host an annual player gathering in our own home called Steel City Eve. All in all, I’ve designed over 1,400 logos and other graphics for alliances, tournaments, community projects, and other things - like Andrew Groen’s Empires of Eve book. I’m also currently helping with the new Clear Skies IV which will hopefully be completed sometime next year.
