While I was born in Sacramento, California a long time ago, I make my home in San Francisco.

Currently, I make my living during the day as an IT Support person and freelance during my spare time. Basically, I have no other life than this.

My earlier influences in art include John Byrne, Marc Sylvestri and George Perez to name a few. My major influence comes from a Japanese artist by the name of Haruhiko Mikimoto. You'll see a lot of that in my earlier works.

In case anybody is wondering, Tiki was a name a drag queen dubbed me one night while out with some friends (no, I wasn't in drag). The name stuck.
