“A creative technologist… tackles solving problems utilizing a mix of technology and design. They work in the space of connecting dots (ideas) that weren’t previously connected.”

Eric Chang, NYU Future Reality Lab

My entire career, I’ve been blending my 3-D production skills, creative direction, shops, and technical mind to create brand new solutions for projects, problems, and challenges.

I’m a fully capable artist, skilled in a skilled in a wide range of digital production techniques and art forms, from 3D animation, VFX, compositing, to layout, typography and graphic design. I also have programmer mode. I’m handy in python, can make my own tools, but more often designs tools, and pipelines to be built by specialists.

I live very comfortably at the intersection of creativity and technology. I learned to program at the age of 10. I pick up new tools and techniques very quickly, and I have a mystical sense for how tools can be used in novel combinations to solve problems.

I have a gift for seeing the immanent connections between tool sets, for intuiting where we can push a piece of software further, to go someplace it’s never been before, to solve a completely new challenge.

I can wrap my head around the technical challenge, all the ways to the digital data needs to be transformed, processed, manipulated, and distill that vision into clear, actionable pseudo code for developers, or build the tools myself if necessary.

I can one-man army an animated video, a production pipeline, a VR simulation. Or I can lead your team to victory.
I am a terrific communicator, an ego-less connector of people and concepts, equally at ease envisioning with your creative artists, or digging deep into the technical specifics with your SMEs. See the page on telling the Technical Story for a description of what I mean by that, and for a taste of just how much I love wrapping my brain around that challenge. Whether it’s a chemical process, a medical device, or a training simulation,
