I live and work in NYC. I got interested in animation since I was 11 or 12 in Junior High. Now I'm working my dream job as a designer/animator at 123Greetings.com . It's really cool that I can contribute something when folks spread the love to their loved ones through the power of the Internet.

My Interests

Besides animation and design I love going to the museums on weekends. Usually I got the Met, Guggenheim or MOMA when I can sneak out from work or at my (extended) lunch break. ;) I'm learning to play the guitar on my spare time. I paint water color from time to time. And I love cycling. When it's nice out, I get to my pal's place in Fort Greene and we bike out to the beach. We stop by and grab grub at a fish n' chips place in the middle of our journey.

Sweetest Day Thanksgiving

I'd like to meet:

People who talk about what to do on holidays, parties and keeping in touch with friends and folks.

Music:

It really depends on my mood but mainly rock – Pink Floyd, Elton John, Pink, Bare Naked Ladies, Green Day, Guns N Roses, Black Eyed Peas ...

Pink Floyd Bryan Adams

Guns N Roses Elton John

Movies:

I really enjoy movies with lots of special effects like the Matrix, Star Wars, Harry Potter and XMen. I'd do anything to watch them opening night. When XMen opened up I could only get the at 1.30am showing. The line at the box office went around the block. And to my surprise the theater was full when the show started! I saw Shaft too that day, waiting for 1.30 am to come. It was kinda like a double midnight matinée.
Ok, maybe I'm biased because I'm an animator but what person wouldn't like good entertainment? I love watching the specials on how they made those effects. It's a testament to 'nothing is impossible'.
I really love animated movies too. I'm a big fan of Pixar. I love Toy Story, A Bug's Life, and my all time favorite – Monster, Inc. Did you get the DVD? I love watching the bloopers.
Don't worry, I like other kinds of movies too. When I'm in the mood, I go for serious films – usually indy flicks but I'd go the Hollywood blockbusters too. Anything goes for me – just depends on my mood – or my date's. :)

Television:

The Simpsons, Law & Order (all of 'em), CSI (all of 'em – love the graphics), I love the Star Trek marathons, SG1, Cartoon Network -- love the website too :)

Books:

Confederacy of the Dunces, Catch – 22, Catcher in the Rye, Skipping Christmas, I like to reading graphic novels too.

Heroes:

Nelson Mandela
Gandhi
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Abraham Lincoln
