I was born in Jersey City, New Jersey on December 1, 1983. I've been drawing since I was very young. When I was young I always wanted to be an actor, until I reached the 8th grade. In my last year in the middle school I did a drawing of Godzilla wrapped around a building, I didn't use any reference I just did it. Once I was finished the drawing, it was the biggest talk through out the whole middle school. They were so surprised, that a 14 year old was able to capture so much detail. When I got into the high school I was already the talk of school just because of that drawing, from that point on I knew what I wanted to do, which was persue my art. Since then I 've been doing illustrations, tattoo designs, logo designs, and now doing animation. I am currently attending the art Institute of Philadelphia for media arts and animation. Being at the art institute showed me so much more I can do with my creative mind. In the future I plan to start my own studio and eventually my own franchise.
