Valve


The jig is up.
The secret is now officially out.
For those of you who I haven't already told...
After nearly a year, finishing the film I'm currently working on, I'm heading to Seattle to start at Valve!

A couple of fun Team Fortress 2 character intros:



I'm really gonna miss my friends here in the Bay but I'm excited to start splashing around in the mud up at the new playground.

Congrats on Valve! They seem to push game animation to whole other levels and seems like a great place to keep growing and looks like a lot of fun.

Good luck!
