I was born in Naperville, Illinois where I lived for 11 years before my family moved to northern California. A few years after we moved to Santa Barbara where I attended San Marcos High School and would eventually meet my wife. Santa Barbara is an interesting town, they try to purposefully not be commercial so everything you see is unique and family run. Interestingly enough though, a lot of chain stores that started off as family run businesses have come from Santa Barbara. My family ended up moving from Santa Barbara to Arizona so we could live closer to more family.

Around this time is when I found out about Firesky. I was initially going to school for computer science and applied to Firesky to be a programmer. Through the application process I ended up meeting Mike Whiting who recommended that I go to the Art Institute of Phoenix (AIPX). From AIPX I met a lot of people and it eventually led to me getting a job at Firesky as a Technical World Builder and I have since been promoted to Level Designer.

My favorite video game would be the entire Legend of Zelda series. So far I have collected over 30 Zelda shirts and counting. I am also a huge fan of the Stargate shows and I make sure the games we work on stay true to Stargate Canon.
