His editorial cartoons for the Daily Cardinal garnered him a first place award in the Society of Professional Journalists regional student editorial cartoon competition in 2006. He won the Associated Collegiate Press national editorial cartooning award in 2007.

Phil cartoons have also appeared in The Grosse Pointe News, The Kenosha News, The Janesville Gazette, The Capital Region Business Journal and Capitol Report Wisconsin, a magazine targeted a Wisconsin’s law makers.

Phil is currently working to make his cartoons about Wisconsin state politics available to newspapers across Wisconsin through Philtoons syndication.
