Originally from Rock Island, IL, I currently reside in Champaign, IL where I'm finishing my BFA in new media with a minor in computer science at the University of Illinois. I work in many digital media, but I am particularly interested in 3d modeling, animation and film production.  My short films have been included in several festivals, including in the Beloit International Film Festival, and my film "The Responsibilities of Men" was awarded the all show grand prize at the i.bradley Media Festival and first place in the MACS Student Film Festival.  I'm currently in post production on my largest film project to date, a 30 minute psychological science fiction, and have also been working on a long term computer animated short film.
