Born and raised in the vibrant borough of Brooklyn, New York, nestled along the iconic Cityline of E.N.Y., this individual's early entrepreneurial spirit was ignited by a summer job selling fireworks in their youth.
As they entered adulthood, their artistic inclinations led them to pursue a career in illustration, specifically book and magazine illustration, after graduating from college. This marked the beginning of their westward journey, as they relocated to the sun-kissed state of California.
In the world of music videos, this creative force made a name for themselves, working on iconic projects featuring legendary artists such as Madonna, Tom Petty, and Prince. Their impressive portfolio caught the attention of the Art Department, leading to a breakthrough in the field of special effects.
A milestone achievement came with their involvement in the Tom Petty music video "Don't Come Around Here No More," which won the prestigious MTV Special FX Award. This success paved the way for their appointment as FX Coordinator on the popular TV series "Tales From The Dark Side" for two consecutive seasons.
The next chapter in their career saw them transition to the world of film, where they spent six seasons as FX Coordinator on the critically acclaimed HBO series "Tales From The Crypt." This experience served as the foundation for their own special effects company, B B Effects Inc., which earned them a coveted spot in the Visual Special Effects Branch of the Academy of Motion Pictures in 2002.
Today, this talented individual continues to thrive, bringing their unique brand of magic to great shows and productions, all while maintaining a sense of humor and a passion for their craft.
