About me:


Yo! I'm from New York/New Jersey. But I've lived in Hollywood, California for the last two years. I'm full of energy like most of the universe. Asian food rocks. I love science. I love the New York Mets. I love my friends and mentors. People fascinate me.

Professionally, I'm an animator and project manager. I do that for a living for various studios who contract me. I'm starting to explore working in comics with art, because, a story is a story. Oh, and I have a degree in creative writing.

And yes, all the show artwork, animation, and cartoons on this page are mine. Nifty.

Check out these people I enjoy satisfying for mediocre checks that add up...


Who I'd like to meet:

Characters, people filled with a lot of character that you can easily spot. Artists and free thinkers I can learn from. People who watch C-Span but also use the F-word. And as many people as possible at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

My first time directing voiceovers for Adult Swim:

    I know it’s been a while and I sincerely apologize for that. I’ve been working on a new “cutting edge” series of cinematic portraits of U.B.R. ‘Neo-Renaissance’ artists and friends. This is the concept teaser for the project. Check it out and let me know what you think.


    P.S. Your continuing friendship means the world to me personally. The U.B.R. couldn’t have gotten to this point without your support. I bow to you, my friend. Hope you have a great weekend! Love and light… - foni

    P.S.S. If you’re interested in keeping track of our progress, add us at - TempereD TantrumS.

    You probably thought I fell OVER the EDGE of this FLAT EARTH we live on. But in reality I’ve been fighting a GORILLA WAR with COMPUTER ROACHES from the PLANET PLUTO. - Oh, that’s right. Pluto is no longer considered a planet… - Okay, you got me. Should be back to NORMAL on Monday. Or at the very least ONLINE regularly. WISHING YOU a great weekend, my FRIEND, and a HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!! Love and light… - foni



    P.S. Really dig the burning doll face. oooooh, it gives me shivers. later, motherfukker....

    I didn't expect goonies to be so intense. Well, I'm glad you are doing well and getting lots of work. Yep, we moved out of the city, I live in corona now, it's a bit far, but the house is awesome. So you started your own business then? Well, anywho I hope we hang out again someday.

    Well, I know that IDW is often looking for inkers. If you ever put together a full inking portfolio, let me know and I'll see what I can do about getting it in their hands.
    They'll probably want to see the original pencils as well.

    No sympathy for self inflicted illness Mr. Haskell. We made it home (obviously) and it was raining here :-) (I was missing the rain). Go to bed early and rest up--you never know when you might need some additional energy.

    Eddie,
    Are you the forerunner of a Napster thief?
