Currently
located on the outskirts of Seattle, this former
web designer now works in the video game industry.
I've been drawing and painting since I was
young, so yeah I still enjoy that quite a bit and
get paid for it once in awhile. When I'm not
doing that I'm usually messing around with
synthesizers or recording horrible noises.
