Ten Second TV
In 2017, I hosted and produced a talk show on Snapchat.
I assembled a team of a dozen Snapchat artists and influencers to host their own segments. At the end of the week, I would collect their video segments and edit it all down to a short episode (<10 min) for the next week.
We had a guest segment each week, most notably, I interviewed the cast of College Humor.
Fort Bear
Fort Bear is a cartoon idea I have about a degenerate bear living in the Fort Sanders neighborhood in Knoxville, Tennessee. Fort Bear is a drug dealer with a heart of gold. His gut reactions to new things are usually wrong, based on his insecurities. We get to watch Fort Bear learn from his mistakes and overcome prejudices.
This is inspired by my love for adult animation like South Park, Superjail, Bojack Horseman, Squidbillies, Futurama, Robot Chicken, and many more. Although it never came to fruition, I still dream of producing my own cartoon. It’s a great medium to take on current events and societal problems.

Spencer’s Gifts by Mike
I design stickers and pins under the brand name Spencer’s Gifts by Mike.
As the name suggests, these aren’t intended to be taken too seriously. The art is rooted in memes, crude humor, and conspiracy theories. It’s a good outlet to polish my illustration skills and share my sense of humor.
Everything else
Lots of junk here with zero context. Feel free to ask me about any of it.
