Charlie draws constantly, and has been doing so his whole life. After earning a B.F.A. in Illustration at the Fashion Institute of Technology and studying fine art in Florence Italy, Charlie began his career in house at Y&R. In house Charlie fine tuned a skill to collaborate with creative directors and present concepts with crystal clarity. He spent the next 13 years drawing storyboards, concepts and animatics for Y&R, Grey, Deutsch Inc, Translation, Wunderman, Publicis, Digitas, McGarry Bowen, Grok, Edit One, Ferrara & Company, Conye PR, and Dreamwires Motion Design.When Charlie is not drawing or painting he talks incessantly and sings. Upon hearing this singing, Charlie's wife and children ask him to not sing and please go back to drawing.
