Digital Designer/ Animator
B.A. in Digital Design - New Jersey Institute of Technology
About Me
When I was in 1st grade, my Father came home from work one day with blank office flipbooks. I started drawing funny comics, stapling the pages, and selling them at recess for 10 cents each. A couple years down the line, I began practicing stop motion animation with my LEGOs using my Mother’s flip phone and Windows Movie Maker. I moved on to creating comics in MS Paint about characters based on my life in my hometown of New Jersey. As a teenager I gained a following creating these crude comics and Brickfilms on a busted laptop using the mouse pad and a camcorder. It took a long time to upgrade in equipment because money was a scarcity for a long time for my family and I. After graduating high-school I decided to pursue a career in Digital Design at NJIT, while creating content and working part-time. I kept investing in myself, to where I now have a B.A. in Digital Design. work with industry standard equipment; forever continuing my love for design and motion pictures.
