BABBLING?
6 years since I've left behind my production background and moved onto CG and visual effect. I can't begin to express how lucky I felt for being able to absolutely love what I do for a living.

Many people have helped me tremendously on the way: Foad Faridzadeh who had gotten me started; Ed Manning who gave me my first freelance gig and many more after that; Dave Barosin who opened Psyop's door for me; and all the super talented people I was lucky enough to work with and learn from. I would not have made it this far without all the support and good will./BOW...

For now I am a generalist. But some day, I want to be able to say something like "have you seen that awesome cityscape scene in the one famous movie? Yup I TD'd the lighting". Ok, it's still be a long way to go, but I will get there, one step at a time...
