I have always had a deep love for animation and illustration. In 2003, while attending San Jose State, I met my wife. At the time, I was a liberal studies major, with plans to graduate and eventually teach at the elementary school level. I then met my wife, who was an Art History major. I then started hanging out in the art building. That's when everything changed.
I happened upon the Animation/Illustration BFA show for that year. Amazed by the jaw-dropping work that I saw, a seed was planted in my brain that eventually made me change my major to art. Unfortunately, I had already been in school for a very long time at that point, so I looked to obtain an art degree that got me out of school the fastest, pushing Animation/Illustration to the back burner. After a stint in the real world, working at a horrendous job, my wife encouraged me to return to obtain education with my true love, A/I.
I've taken GE courses in Astronomy, Chemistry and Oceanography. I've also taken many drawing and painting courses. I've just started classes both in 2d and 3d animation.
I always thought that I would love to be a Visual Developer, but have come to realize that I might want to pursue animation or storyboarding. As of right now, things are up in the air.
