Bio

    About me. well, i'm a 32 year old, happily married, father of 2 boys. My wife Jen is the gamer out of the two of us, and we share many other interests. My oldest son, Shey, is 10 and in the 5th grade. Kael is 7, and takes after his mother when it comes to games. We live in Lincoln, NE, and have been here for 6 years. We lived in a small town an hour west of Tulsa, Ok for a couple years before moving here, and an ironic fact is that even though both my wife and i were raised in Lincoln, both our sons were born in Oklahoma.

    my first passion was, and still is tbh, football. I'm a Buccaneers fan since birth, and Florida State and Nebraska have always been my favorite college teams. i might coach next fall, and have been teaching the boys the basics for a couple of years now. I had little experience with animation, and computers in general, until 4 years ago. i then got my laptop, and quickly became a computer junkie. i purchased it to become a portable encyclopedia for the AD&D world i had created, and soon after that i began to write Scales of the Assassin. I got into 3d because of game mapping and modding, but when i learned that tv and film used the same programs i began to switch gears on the path i wanted to take.

    This class is somthing i hoped the 3DBuzz crew would do since i first started watching the Unreal Tournament 2004 ECE bonus DVD and coming to the site soon after that. Can't wait to get further along in my project.

Resume

    Currently i work as a Technical Writer at Software Technology Inc., writing support articles and tutorials for the Tabs3 and PracticeMaster legal software packages. Have worked as a Print Operator, telephone/cable tv lineman, shipping clerk, cook, and about anything else you can think of.

    I've taken a few years of college, but didn't achieve a degree while working full time to support my family. My 3D training has been completely through 3DBuzz and trial and error. Have developed strong communication skills, and enjoy working in team environments as well as being responsible enough to complete projects on my own.
