About Tom Working.

I really should stop wearing tank tops. This bio is as recent as 2008. Yeah. 2008. I'll offer up a fresher bit on me, but until then, suck it.

Tom Working has been freelancing in design for... a while. He's lived in Sacramento since 2002, serving people with high blood pressure their miscellaneous digital copies and printing, and working freelance as opportunities arise.

Heya. Rewind a couple years back and life finds Tom living and sometimes working in San Francisco. There he lived in the lap of poverty with a crazed writer and harassed local famous webloggers just as the Dotcom bubble burst. In between bouts of employment, he watched a lot of Dario Argento films and movies of dubious value, like "Thall Shalt Not Kill... Except." Prior to that, Tom attended Santa Barbara City College and Sac State.

Me in shorter days, playing golf thinking about how things really went downhill after people over six were allowed to join the club. Tom Working was not always a Californian and surprisingly, not always an adult. He was much shorter once. Tom grew up in the soggy Pacific Northwest milltown of Longview Washington, a place so small that it was over-shadowed by nearby Kelso, a veritable truckstop with an indigenous peoples' museum. Longview's big claim to fame was the public library's Nutty Narrows squirrel bridge, a ridiculous structure that local rodent life were more apt to gnaw at than actually use.

Some time in the late 2000's, Tom gave up his lifelong dream of a normal life and pursued a tattoo apprenticeship. He tattooed in Northern California until 2013. Tom currently lives with family in Santa Barbara.
