Something Like an Autobiography:
Been acting professionally for over 10 years . Mostly in the theatres here in San Antonio and some Independent Films. For the last 5 years I've focused on learning the craft of Filmmaking. Started from the bottom up, doing P.A. paying my dues and did some Grip work. Self taught screenwriter, editor, graphic designer, dvd author and motion graphic artist.
Current Projects:
The Myth of Man - Feature Film - Development Screenwriter/Director
Art of Dreaming - Short Film - Pre-Production Screenwriter/Director
The Igor Show - Comedy Series - Development Co-Creator/Producer
Digital Art
Some of my digital art
Note:
Most of the people I have here on my friends list I will never meet but I respect and admire them for my own personal reasons. Just cause you are not on my "Top 4,8" doesnt mean I love you any less. Special note to new people wanting to add me. I am not some fucking conceited "artist" all I ask is that you send me a message first and an intro. By the way for those of you that think you doing me a favor by adding me to your myspace friends list can fuck off. Don't even dish it out like that, cause I can spot you a mile away.
