About Me:
After ridding myself of a creatively unfulfilling engineering career (and taking a few filler jobs in between) I was inspired to return to school a few years later ("...my kinda town, Chicago is...") and unleash my creative juices in my new career, digital animation. I LOVE IT!!! Some of the cool stuff I'd like to explore careerwise includes animated film title sequences, science animation, digital installation art and performance art as well as comic animation and animated shorts for festivals. I’d also like to collaborate with fine artists of various genres to animate some of their works. I am the owner of Aqueduct Media Corp comprised of two divisions, Aqueduct Social Media and Aqueduct Digital Media. The social media company creates web and blog sites along with profiles of the most relevant social media platforms including LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and Google +.
