About Me

Hey hey, I'm Zacharia McKie, coming out of the great state of Colorado! Outside my day job slaying creative and marketing problems, you can find me exploring the mountains, hunting down new restaurants around town, or bobbing around at a concert with friends. I'm also a big-time gardener with over 80 plants, so I may just be home tending to those.

I'm constantly flexing my creative muscle, for better or worse. I love exploring new mediums and forms of expression. Drawing's my main passion, but you might also catch me doing watercolor, embroidery, leatherwork, or bombing down a hill in a custom-themed cart because it seemed like fun (ask me about it when we meet). Endlessly curious and always down for an adventure, I'm your ultimate yes-and man, and it'd be my pleasure to make something dope together.
