WILDYAM CREATIVE
BORN TO BE MILD
MY ART
Wild-Yam?
It's a name that stuck after a childhood friend's wordplay with my real name, William, became my creative identity.
Who Is Wild-Yam?
I'm a walking contradiction who peaked in high school as both "Most Rebellious" and an AB Honor Roll student.
I was "Born to Be Mild"
These days, I channel that same chaotic energy into creating work that matters to me.
Whether I'm collaborating with my kids on surreal illustrations or helping brands get noticed with unconventional marketing strategies, I bring that same unfiltered creativity to everything I touch.
My Claim To Fame
Getting MySpace banned from my entire school by creating the infamous "Carl Higgins" – a fake profile featuring the first photo I found by Googling "Creepy Bald Guy".
Carl's friendship crusade of adding every girl in school came to an abrupt halt when one student showed her teacher mom, who speed-ran to IT and got MySpace blocked.
Turns out my teenage trolling accidentally highlighted a legitimate concern.
