# About me

I am a life-long visual artist with an omnivorous eye for sources of inspiration that I can find in the most mundane and unlikeliest of places but influenced heavily by the aesthetics of graphic novels, anime and video games. In the summer of 2011, I discovered Blender, a free 3D modeling program. 2 years later, I graduated from the New York Film Academy’s 1-year 3D animation conservatory where I received rigorous training in Maya, Photoshop, After Effects, ZBrush, Nuke, Mental Ray and more. After school, my technological savvy has allowed me to pick up new software with ease like Premiere, Illustrator and Realflow. As a generalist, every facet of CGI media engages me from vector graphics to 3D modeling/animation to Hollywood-quality VFX. I combine my mastery of the software with a cinematic sensibility to deliver very high production values.

No, I crawled through a hole in a chainlink fence at the US-Mexican border like a weasel.

It's not polite to probe the background of total strangers dude.

Just read your rant in politics. You deserve a watch from a son of first generation survivors of the Siberian Gulags. I'm proud to know you.
