No matter how outlandish my ideas have been, I have always marched to the beat of my own drum. From the time I was little, I have always taken an interest in creating, building, and working on my own random art projects (fireworks and things that are really dangerous). Many of you may not know this, but I hold a special place in my heart for George Romero films like the original Dawn of the Dead or even Sam Raimi's Evil Dead movies. Nothing fascinated me more as an 8 year old than some zombie getting his arm wacked off with a chainsaw or better yet when actor Bruce Campbell cuts his own hand off and straps a chainsaw to his arm. For some reason that scene sticks in my mind. I remember how real it looked but it never really frightened me. I was actually intrigued and knew that one day I could and would create art like this. As I got older, I thought I was destined for a life in LA writing and directing film. After 6 months and a 6.7 magnitude earthquake, I decided that wasn't such a great plan. I then returned to New York City to complete culinary school and become a chef trained in classical French cuisine. Whether it was cooking something, writing, or making my father look like Freddy Krueger for halloween back in '88, I have always considered myself an artist. Almost 3 decades later I figured out what I was destined for. What I do now not only looks like some of the props they use in film, but I can now go home knowing that I have restored someone's life.
