Back Pocket Studio started the way a lot of good things do: with a busted sketchbook, a great idea on a napkin, and a feeling that the best brands don’t come from boardrooms—they come from the back pocket.
It actually goes back to the late 1900s (yes, really) in Springfield, Ohio, where I got my start designing newspaper and Yellow Pages ads for a local internet service provider. What started as quick layout jobs turned into full-blown web design gigs—and before I knew it, I was a webmaster building digital homes for small businesses around town.
Over time, I sharpened my skills in Photoshop, dove into photography, and kept following the creative thread wherever it pulled. That journey eventually led to building my own brands—Stonetone Guitars, a custom guitar line with bite, and Mystic Brew Coffee, a concept coffee brand steeped in magic and music.
Now with Back Pocket Studio, I bring that same love for bold ideas and hands-on creativity to people ready to stand out. I’m not about templates, trends, or watered-down vibes—I’m about helping you craft something real, something sharp, and something you didn’t see coming.
We keep it small. We keep it smart. We keep it ready—right in the back pocket.
