This is a self portrait of my subconscious. In dreams I am sometimes flying and in conflict with zombies and space aliens. I got turned on to JohnK's way via digg and have gotten inspired in the quest for animation. I have made cartoons every since I had a computer that could pixelate as well as a few super 8 films and some live action videos. I have always wanted to manifest something big, but until I ran into JohnK's crowd, haven't had the impulse. I have friends in LA but can't foresee myself moving there. I live in Chicago right now and teach html, CSS and javascript at IADT in the loop. I have also taught flash, illustrator and Photoshop. I am a big fan of 3d Max and Maya. I am doing the graduate school program for interdisciplinary arts at the Academy of Arts University San Fransisco via online and this fall have to create a dynamic thesis project to work upon for the next two to three years. I hope I can channel some of the animation inspiration that way!
