Early Life
I was exposed to reading for pleasure at a young age, and found myself very interested in Science Fiction in my early teens, I remember reading about great ships that could travel in time and space, and amazing inventions that could better the world, and in those books they created whole worlds of wonder and amazement… It’s because of these early influences that I was interested in Design, Engineering, Architecture, Art, Social Studies, History, Inventions, and it instilled in me the seeds of Imagination that would grow over time.
Journeyman
From early in my career, I feel very fortunate that I have worked for some amazing engineers and innovators in different disciplines from Mechanical, Structural, Manufacturing, Fabrication, Product Development and Theme Park. Learning, creating and working with these knowledgeable and experienced men and women helped me become versed in design and acquire an artisan mentality to my career and my life.
Now
I have reached a level of understanding which allows me to feel as if I can handle any situation that I am placed in, not because I think I know everything, but because I know that everything can be understood. All innovation in design is a new solution to be understood. It’s a lesson that finally culminated while I worked at Walt Disney Imagineering, I saw my part in the larger flow of Design, Fabrication, and Art. That is really where I understood and developed my motto about Design, Fabrication, Art… They are the same, there are no barriers between them.

I enjoy playing the guitar, which I play horribly, but I enjoy it so I do it regardless. I enjoy Art of all kinds so when possible you will find me in the Arts District of Downtown LA, or in one of the local museums or galleries in the area. On occasion I will visit Venice Beach and Santa Monica Pier because I love the energy there.
I believe in equality for everyone, both men and women, and respect others views in all matters. I appreciate loyalty and honesty from everyone around me and I reciprocate that in kind. I believe that all life is precious and also believe in karma, so I try to do good deeds when ever possible.
My life philosophy is that we are here to do great deeds and to create great things, I like to do my part in everything I do, from living life in acceptance of others, to creating art, to working hard… Which to me is all the same, there are no barriers.
“Principles for the Development of a Complete Mind: Study the science of art. Study the art of science. Develop your senses- especially learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.” ~ Leonardo Da Vinci
