Biography[]

Before working on SpongeBob, he was a member of SpĆ¼mcĆø, working on The Ren & Stimpy Show as a writer, director, and storyboard artist (along with Bob Jaques, Kelly Armstrong, Bob Camp, Lynne Naylor, Chris Reccardi, and Richard Pursel), as well as collaborating with John Kricfalusi on other projects. Vincent Waller was also a storyboard artist on Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog (which was headed by Kent Butterworth) Evil Con Carne, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, and The X's.
