About:
I was born in Norfolk Virginia in Aug 1965, lived in Virginia and New Jersey until the age of 4. Moved to Philadelphia and lived there until December 1992, when I moved to Garland, Texas to take this job with Apogee. After one year of college (getting dismissed with a GPA that would have made the guys from Animal House proud), I bounced around for a few years at auto parts warehouses in Philadelphia and New Jersey, and a job at a microfiche company as well as Bell Atlantic until coming to Texas. Overall, I've had a really good life so far, and I thank my mother a lot for the guidance she's given me over the years (even if I didn't agree all the time). I'd also like to thank the love of God and Jesus Christ, as I wouldn't have had the good life I've had so far if it wasn't for them. More recently, I would like to thank my wife Lynn for being there for me. She's as good as they come, and I wouldn't be much of anything anymore without her.
My career highlight would be getting this job with Apogee. I'm one of the lucky few in the world who actually genuinely loves his job, and looks forward to Mondays. I'm fortunate that I figured out a way to get someone to pay me to do what I already did as a hobby. :) One other highlight was seeing work I had done actually published in the market. I designed 5 levels for the original Rise of the Triad. For shareware, I did two levels, those being Ride 'em Cowboy and Wall to Wall. I did three levels for ROTT: Darkwar, those being Eight Ways to Hell, The Vomitorium, and Cross Purposes (a Comm-Bat Level). For the Extreme ROTT pack, I designed the pack with Tom Hall. I did 15 levels, he did 27 of them. For people who liked my old ROTT levels, fear not. In Extreme ROTT I designed The Grand Vomitorium.
On October 26, 1996, I got married to Lynn Pykus, my best friend for about 13 years now. Best thing I ever did with my life. I named a level in Extreme ROTT after her (Pykus Peak).
