Hi, I’m Sean.
After serving as a Biomedical Equipment Technician in the U.S. Air Force, I’m now a PhD student at the University of South Florida, where I specialize in biomedical optics. But outside the lab, I’ve always loved making things, whether it’s a custom lighting rig, 3d Printing, or a hand-poured candle.
Now, I’m teaming up with my fiancée Madison Coker to combine our worlds—hers in art, mine in engineering—to launch creative projects that bring beauty, craftsmanship, and heart to the table. Madison is a certified K–12 art teacher and incredibly gifted wildlife painter. Over the past seven years, she’s taught everyone from kindergartners to seniors and collaborated with groups like the Florida Panther Society.

While Madison creates the stunning oil paintings and giclée prints, I focus on bringing those pieces to life through custom touches—like designing the official beeswax seals, creating custom 3D printed magnetic canvas holders—and helping launch our projects on platforms like BackerKit. Our first major collaboration is the Jungle Animal Series, and we’re excited to keep building from here.
