Addition Information See also: Film Credits Background I have a Bachelor of Science in Graphics from Western Michigan University. I created a tailored cirriculum: Part of my courses were geared toward the technical aspects of 3D, and part were geared toward art. This combination of art and technical have given me the capabilites I need to create great visual effects. Incedentally, I did the first thesis project in computer animation at WMU. During and after college for a time of about three years, I did freelance work. For two years following that, I owned a small business called Choreo Motion which served as my sole source of income. While my company was financially successful, I found myself spending more time being a coordinator and salesman than being an artist. Subsequently I hired into a communications firm, Nucleus Communications, where I had been employed as a Multimedia Producer. I departed Nucleus after four years of employment to take a sabbatical, so to speak, to refocus my carrer on Visual FX work. I freelanced for about a year prior to hiring into Digital Dimension in North Hollywood, California, where I am currently employed doing high-end Visual FX work for film and television.
