As a youth, Ngoho rode his skateboard and associated with the notorious Z-Boy gang. He is a life-long skateboarder and surfer and expresses this California cult and culture based aesthetic through his art works.

His work, stye and genre cover a wide range; from expressionistic skate / surf evidence that harken domestic and international, surfing and skate haunts to strong robust non-objective abstract pieces that blend a multitude of influences from historic to cyber funk. Ngoho studied art at Loyola Marymount University (LMU).
