Since my graduation I've relocated back to Illinois. Now that I'm settled in I'll try to make more updates to the site. I've already gone ahead and made some changes to my resume page. I've added download links for Word 97-03, Word 07, and PDF versions of my resume. My About Me page is a little outdated already but that's all part of the fun when relocating. I have yet to really figure out what I'm all about up here, ha! So in time I'll post some more info and some of the projects I have laying around. Until then, take it easy.

Well I finally did it! I graduated from Full Sail University yesterday! The event was hosted at Hard Rock Universal where we graduated with other courses including Digital Arts/Media and Computer Animation. I received a course directors award for Computer Programming III and will be receiving my diploma later in the month (All diplomas are held till the end of the semester). It was a pleasure to meet all the course directors once again and to be able to chit chat with them before I move on. The last 21 months have been amazing....and tough. Simply put, if I had the chance to do it all over again, I would and I wouldn't change a thing. I'm looking forward to the next couple of months. Before I move on though, I would like to take the chance to say thanks to everyone who has helped me along the way. Friends, family, course directors, and the school are all included here. Thank you.

I received complaints that the Games Page was loading pretty slow for those who are still living in the dark ages, otherwise known as 56k. I went ahead and moved the images into their own separate pages powered by SimpleViewer(Flash). This will help the page load faster as well as streamline how I add games to the site. The page will be less cluttered and have more room for games! I'm working on some other stuff and I'll be sure to keep you up to date.

For those of you with a keen eye, you may have noticed that I changed "Full Sail Real World Education" to "Full Sail University". The state finally got around to accrediting Full Sail as a University. This process has been going on long before I joined the program and luckily for me it goes into the books right now. Hopefully this doesn't cause any confusion. Full Sail University is Full Sail Real World Education. And no, this isn't an April Fools joke.

Well I finally got the Web site up and running! Took me awhile to lay down the tubes but now I've got this baby coming to you LIVE. Please, Allow me to take you on the grand tour. To your left you'll see the navigation bar. After learning a little bit about me and what I'm like, you can take a look at my past projects and games. Moving from this point forward, I'll be sure to keep you up to date as I'll be adding current projects, games, and other relevant information to the site. Any updates or changes I make to the site will be posted on the main page here. Make sure to check back often.
peace,
