The Name
Hazmat was born many years ago when a good friend and I were driving from Florida to Rhode Island. At 4am ignorantly not realizing what the 'No Haz Mats' signs on the road ment around New Jersey, we had fun conjuring everything we could think of except what it actually ment. It started as my email for a joke, then continued on with everything i did...
Hazmat
I was born in Miami and raised mailny in Florida- being bored and young, going to the local punk show or goth/fetish club. Art has always been a major part of my life and will continue on to be. In high school I was a teacher's aid to Art I and attended numerous art schools for summers. I Graduated
with a BFA in Graphic Design. After graduation, and a gruling interview process and almost job langing in NYC I decided to pick up everything and move to Los Angeles. My work in the fashion industry was a fluke with landing a package design job in a street wear company which blossomed into starting a designer denim company
from the ground up with the owner. After taking a year sebatical in Canada (which was fun as all hell) i'm back in Lost Angeles. Though i have thought time and time again to start designing latex, I have been having so much fun cherishing the designs of others that i can find no time. At the current time I am a self employed artist/graphic designer for many high end labels in the fashion industry here.

Music has also been a big part of my life which evolved into club promoting, djing and designing flyers. I frequently go to shows and know, support and design for many talented musicians especially in the electronic
music scene. Although my music tastes spread farther than just electronic, most excitement revolves around it. I debuted as a DJ at Das Bunker Los Angeles during a Estrogen night and from then on was a resident for about 4-5 months. From there I dj'd Coma Noise fest, and other clubs around Toronto, Montreal, Paris and back to LA.
I still dj once in a while if asked, but exploring my love for latex, latex fashions and fetishists have taken up most of my free time.
.. more to come but that's all for now folks
