Since graduating from Columbus College of Art and Design in 2002, Adam has had work exhibited in several galleries in Ohio and has begun to exhibit outside the state. He is involved in several organizations related to promoting artists. He has been a member of the Ohio Art League since 1999, working as a volunteer, an intern, and eventually being asked to the Board of Trustees where he currently serves as Chair of the Membership and Programming Committees. Adam has also helped other local arts organizations, such as the Greater Columbus Arts Council and the Grandview Arts Council, by participating in discussions on how to best serve artists in the community.

Adam's work is primarily painting, though he still considers himself a printmaker from his time in college. He makes bright colored, graphic, narrative paintings about his perspective on the world and its oddities. His characters have become recognizable in the Columbus art scene.
