Elated to learn that graffiti characters of upcoming graphic novel “Serious Damage” (Abrams ComicArts 2026) by Joshua Tuininga have been revealed!! 

Tuininga is an exceptional storyteller, an award winning author and artist of “We Are Not Strangers”, his latest work.

Inspired by a true story, this graphic novel follows a Jewish immigrant’s efforts to help his Japanese neighbors while they’re incarcerated during World War II.

I absolutely love this book and highly encourage it if you are in search of amazing Xmas gift ideas!

Super excited about the upcoming project next year!! 

Excited to announce that I’ve been selected as a Mentor for the GRAMMY U Mentorship Program, Presented by Amazon Music!

Looking forward to share my knowledge and experience with the next generation of music professionals.
