At the age of ten, Dragon Dronet won a year-long scholarship to the Renaissance School of Art in Oakland, California. Ten years later he began a career In the entertainment industry in Seattle, where he shared a business designing and manufacturing costumes, and honing his skills as a Sci-Fi artist and illustrator. He was also entering and winning science fiction costume contests all over America. At the same time he was studying martial arts and swordsmanship. By the time he arrived in Los Angeles in the 80's, Dragon was not only experienced in props and costumes; he was a seasoned professional in stunts, martial arts and swords as well as a celebrity on the Sci-Fi Convention circuit.
His expertise led to work on the films: Alien Resurrection; Batman and Robin (assisting on Mr. Freeze's suit of armor); Eraser: and the Star Trek television series and films Babylon 5, A.I. and many more.

He was also one ofthe memnon warriors in The Scorpion King and created the hero armor pieces that were worn by the Scorpion king army.

Dragon's philosophy on life is simple: My word is my bond and integrity. The only way to truly know yourself is to follow your dreams, do your best and never give up.
