Why am I an artist and Christian: I am a Christian because Jesus Christ Saved my Soul and Delivered me from Darkness inherent within Witchcraft and the Occult. I am an artist because God gifted me with these talents and my wife gets on my case if I'm wasting any talent that God gave me.
I also feel that since God gifted me with these talents, I must use them for HIS glory, not my own.

Job for Cyberlight: Creator/Writer/Artist Cyberlight Comics (Beyond Mortality). Sarcasm King, and Website consultant.

Current Projects: Revelation Studios: Christian Media Ministry, Beyond Mortality for Cyberlight and RVS.

Backstory: Born July 23rd, 1979 in Ishpeming Michigan, Born again in January of 2001. Married in July of 2001, and Servant of Christ.

I was deep into the occult, including witchcraft, druidism, chaos magic, and heading into satanism at the time that Christ delivered me from the darkness. At that point in time I had been raised in the church, but rebelled against God. In January of 2001, I accepted Christ as my Lord and Saviour, and my life changed permanently for the better.

Recently in my life I have now celebrated with my wife Five years of marriage without us killing each other, The Fourth Birthday of my son, and the creation of the Ministry that I am now involved in full time as I create, write, and draw Beyond Mortality for Cyberlight Comics in partnership with Revelation Studios. My art style has changed, and many people now say it's for the better. I have been sober and clean for longer now than I ever have been since I was 17.

Remember, even in greatest darkness, the light of hope shines bright!
