He has traveled throughout most of North America, Western Europe, the Caribbean, and the Amazon rainforests of Peru. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in photography from Sam Houston State University. For over 10 years, he has earned his living as a 3D animator and graphic artist, working for clients like The JASON Project, EDS, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, and Lockheed-Martin.
