Wes Burke, the founder of CG Cookie, is from Chicago and worked as a 3D environment game artist before launching the business during his long daily commutes.

CG Cookie effectively addresses the challenge of affordable, high-quality education in 3D software like Blender, enabling artists to develop crucial skills that could be otherwise costly and time-consuming.
