First off many thanks to Rahul Choudhury he did an amazing work for the coding on the site, and Nintendo should hire him, like, now.

What I like:
-My kickass wife
-Street Fighter!!!
-Japanese Rock bands that I have no clue as to what they sing about (The Pillows and Asian Kung-Fu Generation)
-Soccer. Real Madrid is the greatest team on Earth
-FLCL, Naruto, Bleach and any anime that doesnt suck (I realize thats about 10 percent)

What I dislike:
-Conceited artists that think they're Gods gift to us poor humble servants, I have no interest in you
-Emo-goth-furry people. That combination just kinda freaks me out

Heres why my mom thinks I'm awesome:
I was Born in Venezuela in 1982 and then raised in places like Cozumel, Mexico, Spain and France.. then back to Spain for senior year of high school. Right after that I realized that the United States would provide for what I wanted career wise ... and I always wanted readily available-well conversed videogames, it was a great decision.

My art training seriously began when I attended The Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art (Dover, New Jersey), I graduated from its Cinematic Animation course in May of 2003. I can say that the experience was very valuable; having spend time with comic book legends like Joe Kubert or Hy Eismann and veteran animators like Doug Compton among many others was amazing.
My next college experience was just as valuable, and far more sunny. I attended the Computer Animation Course in FullSail Real World Education and completed my Associates of Science by November of 2004.
Right after that I completed two internships for Fullsail, one in the Game Design department for 3 months and another one in the Computer Animation department for 6 months.

Currently I am living in Bountiful, Utah working as a Concept and 3D Artist at EA Salt Lake. Were a good bunch of guys, really!

During my free time I have also won the Square-Enix Ultimania Design a Character contest. The good folks at Square sent me an autographed Final Fantasy X-2 poster signed by Mr. Tetsuya Nomura himself. I have also participated in the Blizzard fan art program and I wont rest until I get a front page at CG Talk, dammit (got 4 stars last time!)
