Hey

About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I'm from Massachusetts... living in Hollywood since 2003, after a year in beautiful Arizona.... I work in visual effects. That occupies about 95% of my life outside of sleeping. I love effects, and I love movies. I like living in L.A. for now, but I don't know if I want to settle down here for the rest of my life. My career keeps me here pretty much.
I love to sculpt, draw, and generally get away from the computer whenever possible.
I love New England, especially during the fall, and after a fresh snow storm. I love the Arizona storm season in Tucson and Sedona (August)... monster thunderstorms every afternoon followed by the most beautiful sunsets you can imagine.
Links I Like!
Cool animation from a guy I worked with
Another Geography Game
Beautiful Photography - Ashes and Snow
Playing With Sand
Matte Painting
Cool Short Films
Play This Game
Strange Partners
Cute Overload
Cats in Sinks!
Farm Sanctuary
These are my pics from Cottonwood and Sedona, Arizona, where my friend Terri lives. There's also a pic of Mt. Shasta in northern California thrown in for good measure.
