Well what's there to say about myself?
I joined Gaia Online back in mid-2004 (I remember it being called Go-Gaia back then), was highly active up to around 2005 where I had a somewhat unpleasant series of events making my time on the website relatively limited.
Many from back in 2004/2005 will know me mostly as one of the regulars and core members of FAAFN (Free Avatar Art For Newbies) as both a insomniac chatter and artist.

In late 2005 I completely dropped off the radar from Gaia Online because of personal issues and then after fixing my situation got into employment which took my mind so far away that I literally forgot that Gaia even existed! sweatdrop

So where have I been for the past...*counts*...eight years!
Well if anyone recalls my nickname in the FAAFN group...no not that one... the other one! You'll easily guess that my source of employment was as an artist... to be more specific, I joined the fantastic group of individuals at Pixar.
After that I job-hopped quite a bit between various digital artist roles in the media industry before settling down in 2008 in one place for four years and am now a full-time freelance concept artist.

I'm also currently bouncing between various studios in discussions and interviews to become a part-time voice actor. The main goal from that is to expand my experience enough so that I can consider working on my own fully spectacular animated film/series and break-out as an indie studio.

Sadly having an art related job means that I very rarely do art in my free-time any more as it tends to get a bit overkill when you're working on art projects all day every day.
If I get a spark of inspiration, I may sneak my old drawing implements out of their drawer and throw a sketch or CG of an avatar out there, but that'll be very rare with my busy work life.

That'll do for now, any more about me can be found out by speaking with me and getting to know me.
I don't bite, promise!
