Music
I like everything, except Christian death metal, seems like an oxymoron. And most country. but everything else is fair game.
Movies
Gotta love the gore, and Sci-fi Fantasy. But I love all movies. I love takahgashi miike, audition is one of my favorite movies. I like shit that gets banned for whatever reason. Aftermath, really good. Princess Bride, all the henson movies, I like comedies, huge anime fan, Just a huge fan of movies, and the production of film. I have around 500 movies and i love them all except killer rats which I still can't believe I bought. It just sucked dick in a big way, I'd stay clear of that piece of trash.
Television
Family guy, CSI (the original), Flight of the Conchords, what ever strikes my fancy at that particular moment.
Books
Too many to count. I love to read. I am usually between reading 3 to 5 books at a time and just bounce back and forth between them. I am basically a big comic book nerd, who plays way to many video games, and likes to make monsters and gore effects.
Heroes
Dick Smith, Stan Winston, Ash, Disa, Rick Baker, Jerry Gergely, Bonnie, Will, Eric, my parents, and I'd like to thank the academy and all the fans, keep believing.
About me: I am a special effects make-artist, from Tucson, Arizona. I graduated from school recently and am trying to make it in the industry. I really enjoy what I do and can't imagine doing anything else. I would eventually like to open my own creature effects shop in New York City. I am fully qualified from design to application, and everything in between. Please contact me for a sample sheets and a resume.
Who I'd like to meet: I already met the godfather, Dick Smith. I love that man. I really wanna jump start my career and would like to meet someone who is in need of my make-up skills. Or would like an apprentice, or lackey of some kind, I make a really good cup of coffee.

Well, it's time. I set up my myspace so that clients would have quick access to my work. I've since set up a blog instead I can now be reached. It's more professional and the quality of my samples is stronger in resolution.
I'll shut my site down the night before my birthday March 20th.
Check out my blog and keep it as one of your favorites. I've just been hired by Chris Nolan (director of the Batman movies) to be a part of a two man design team to create the world of his new Science Fiction film "INCEPTION" starring Leo DiCaprio. It's an incredible movie that'll really challenge the genre of Science Fiction not seen since Star Wars or Blade Runner.
I had to turn down the new Nemo movie at Disney in order to work on this which was a really tough call as I've been a lifelong fan of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. This is such a unique opportunity, I just had to jump on it. Wish me luck and I'll see you on my new blog.
