A little about me:

    I figure most people who are coming here are looking for my art or already know me, so for the most part I'm only going to put a short bit, and will put current updates here from time to time.

    I'm a bit of a wanderer.  I went into the military right out high school, I'm still not sure I knew my reasons that well then. From there I got out of the military Aug 2001, and got home the weekend before sept 11, 2001. I had plans to work at several companies that fell apart in the wake of that tragedy. So I spent time figuring out what I wanted to do with my life.

    I ended working with computers, something I learned by trial and error mostly. I completed a degree at chubb in 2002, then went though Ocean County College to get my AS in IT. When I looked at the courses I ended up working with the colleges to edit the degree to suit what I wanted out of the school, so I have a lot of funny letters to explain that I took a bunch of hard courses to meet state requirements, and since the state reqs changed as I was working through the degree I got to take a bunch of course I would never have chosen to take otherwise. I figure at the end of the day you don't really lose anything by learning more but time. So my degree is an AS.GE.CS.CSTT, CPE.GENERAL basically an applied science degree in Computer Science / Information Technology / Gen ED, with a focus in Programming, Databases, Photoshop, Web Site Design, with education and accounting courses throw in for some reason.I worked for about six different staffing agencies at the same time so life was hectic.

    From there I went through Full Sail University as they were transitioning from a trade school that just started offering BS degrees to a full blown University.

    I worked for a start-up instead of taking an internship in Hawaii or waited for a better job. When VXFS finally fell apart I was stuck in LA without the next mouths rent after being told before xmas they had money for the rest of the year. I started an internship with Zoic Studios in January of 2010 and had a blast working for a real company. I will see what the future holds as the internship ended in june of 2010.

    As of 2011 I starting volt staffing agency on activison prperties which is o going as of jan 2012.
