Sean Michael Preston Hill was born July 13, 1985 in Ridgecrest,
California. He and his older brother, Chris, were adopted before Sean
was even one year old. Born "Preston Gale Davis," Sean's newly adopted
parents changed his and his brother's names to the present. Sean's
adopted father is a pastor of a non-denominational church while his
mother works as an "at home nurse." Sean began working at the age of 9
as a gymnastics teacher. Throughout his school years, he worked as a
paperboy, a lobbyist, in fast food, as a teacher's aid, a computer lab
tech, painting houses, and as an assistant to the C.E.O. of a
government contracting agency, never once getting fired. Both boys were
home schooled all throughout grade school until their parents decided
to place them both in college early. Sean was 12 and Chris ("Cj") was
14 when they began taking classes. The following year, they were both
attending the college full time while still being home schooled and
working. Sean graduated high school at 15 and continued on at the
community college. The next year, at 16, he graduated with degrees in
Art, Fine Art, and Humanities. He then took a yearlong course at the
Digital Animation Academy graduating with another degree in digital
animation science and Media (all before his 18th birthday). In 2004,
Sean attended Cal State University of Fullerton and graduated in 2006
with a Bachelors degree in Radio, TV and Film.

This landed him a job on a MTV documentary film. One month later, Sean signed on to be an Associate Producer.
