I first began experimenting with video in 1989 while in college when I was loaned a video camera and had an Amiga 500 computer. I never completed that much back then, but I saw the revolution coming and wanted to be a part of it. My senior thesis at the Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington was appropriately entitled Computopia. I did not have the money in order to pursue those virtual dreams at the time. I knew that there was more to the world then just staring at a computer, so I sold everything I owned and travelled mostly through Europe, Turkey, and Thailand from 1990 until 1992.
I first started actually creating experimental videos in 1994, the first year
I saw the World Wide Web through the Mosaic text and graphical browser . Things were coming together that in technology that year.
I had purchased a Mac Quadra 660AV and began making little videos with a whopping
25mhz processor and 24 mb of RAM.
I had always loved MTV when I was growing up, and enjoyed the visual stories and
creative possibilities of the medium. My work is personal experential, spiritual,
and inspirational possibilities of living. I have recently realized that my creations
are my dreams for the world to see, recorded, analyzed, processed, and enhanced through
technology. I almost exclusively use my own imagery, my own life experience to
communicate my unique vision of this planet.
People sometimes ask if I am a film-maker, I reply that I am a video-artist. Someday I might be a film-maker, but currently I am an independent artist who primarily makes money through user interface design.

It was with this experience of travelling that I got my first glimpses of what was to come with my life. That of diverse cultures, travel, art, and technology.
