I use new media technologies to create visual and interactive experiences. I am highly interested in how the social aspects of the internet help disseminate information and how the right combination of design/technology can help that process along.
I aim to make many "online experiences" begin the leave to realm of the monitor/keyboard environment and move into broader, open spaces.
Design-centric background: User-experience design, interactive design, generative art, design-technology strategy
Development-centric background: Flash, Object-Oriented Actionscripting, Flex, Advanced HTML/CSS development, Processing
