About

Rev Ruin was born and raised in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Coming from a broken home and as a survivor of abuse, Rev survived several suicide attempts culminating in the night he almost died in 2007.

A lover of spirituality and art since childhood, Rev still lives in the Upper Peninsula with his partner in life and love, his son, and shares custody of his daughter.

Rev attended Northern Michigan University and majored in Illustration, yet did not graduate. After college Rev moved into the world of website design and online marketing as the internet became more widely accepted.

Rev also spent several years as a Pentecostal Minister before rediscovering the broadness of faith.

Currently Rev is working on a book about his life and spiritual journey, as well as continuing to press forward in a long awaited illustration career.
