about me
Welcome to my story—please keep your hands and arms inside the ride at all times!
​​
My first attraction opened when I was 12: a backyard theme park complete with a moat (it didn’t hold water) and big dreams. After one summer of digging up flower beds, my mom shut down the operation—but for my friends, it was one unforgettable ride.
That was just the beginning. From then on, I was hooked on the magic of theme parks. I devoured every piece of art, music, and news from Disneyland and Walt Disney World. I collected brochures like souvenirs, wrote letters asking every question I could imagine, and dreamed of the day I’d help create experiences that make people as happy as those parks made me.
​
My creative journey has taken many paths—model building, sketching, painting, animation, and graphic design. Music is another land I love to explore. I’m a self-taught producer and audio engineer, and I play guitar, bass, and ukulele. Travel is my E-ticket, especially to Hawaii and the South Pacific, where the beauty and culture inspire me.
​
As a Los Angeles native, my roots run deep in design and construction. My grandfather designed iconic homes for Bing Crosby and Gene Autry, and my father built public projects across the city. Their craftsmanship taught me the value of vision—a legacy I strive to honor in everything I create.
Today, I’m still chasing that dream, building on the work of the great designers who came before me—and that 12-year-old kid with a backyard full of imagination. The ride isn’t over. In fact, it’s just getting started.
