Sean began his career as an architectural illustrator before going into retail, where he won hundreds of national awards for developing creative supermarket merchandising programs for Safeway Stores, Inc. As an Internet pioneer, Sean founded his first Internet publishing company in 1993.

In 1996, Sean leveraged his Internet skills and a lifetime love of Pop Culture to start StudioFX. It was here that he created the world’s first Virtual Amusement Park featuring 2,500 hours of original television content with over 200 exclusively licensed entertainment properties. StudioFX received numerous Web and community awards, including The Disabilities Employer of the Year in 2000.
