Mini Bio :

After being de-wombed on November 25, 1983 in Hartford, Connecticut, I moved to Plano, Texas and spent the majority of my childhood at Mathews Elementary School. Halfway through my 4th grade year, my family moved to Austin, Texas where I attended Lake Travis Middle/High School. I currently reside in North Austin and am graduating in August from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering.

I have always loved movies, but did not actually begin making my own until my sophomore year of college. While working at an engineering internship, I hated the work I was doing and felt like I was wasting my life. My only outlet was to research the logistics of making a movie while sitting at my desk. At the end of the summer I filmed my first movie, Worthless, with a rented miniDV camera and have been making movies ever since.

Since that fateful summer, I have learned how to edit using Sony Vegas 5.0, how to create interactive DVDs using MediaChance DVDLab, and how to create a website using Macromedia Flash and Dreamweaver. This website was a requirement for my first RTF class (RTF 331 “Death”), which is why all of the main material is associated with that subject. All of the projects had only one constraint: relate to “death” in some way, shape, or form.
