I grew up in a dry cleaners at a strip mall in the Inland Empire. From the time I was eight, I was vacuuming floors and taking out garbage from World Video and The Pit Stop BBQ allowing me enough money to buy Nintendo games. I spent my summers watching horror movies and classic Wrestle Manias. I took tap dancing lessons and won a national competition at Show Stoppers. I had completely forgotten about this last fact until my mother reminded when I was 29. I guess I won the in the fat kid category. My friend Rick was 11 years older than me and lived in a big blue car with his mom, Pat and sister, Toni. I had a crush on Toni until the guy from Double or Nothin' Pizza got her pregnant. I ate Taco Bell and In and Out Burger everyday. There was an all you can eat Chinese food place next door, and the window paint said: "You can eat all for 5.99". Now its about 20 years later and the doctors says I have a super power called ADD. By harnessing this super power with a little orange tablet and combining it with the skills I gained at the Art Center College of Design, I can create kick ass images. I have found my calling: making rad images and fighting the forces of evil.
