Always with crayon or pencil in hand, I got into CG for my love of VFX in movies. The Abyss, Terminator 2 and Jurassic Park were the films that cemented my desire to work in this industry.

I should send Cameron and Spielberg a 'thank you' note.

In 2004, I graduated from The Illinois Institute of Art-Chicago with a Bachelor's Degree in Media Arts and Animation. In 2009, I finished the Animation Mentor course and graduated with a degree in Advanced Studies in Character Animation.

Currently, I am celebrating my 6th year as an animator in the videogame industry.

On the off chance you might be asking, "What does 'AnimationCosmic' mean?" Or, "Is this guy an idiot?" Allow me to explain. The moniker comes from two things that I am most fascinated by. Animation and the cosmos. Both are vast, with endless possibilities and unknowns. And both require thorough exploration in order to grasp them. So, there you have it!
