My Background: I have 20 + years of experience in 3-D animation for television. In 1988 I was in the first graduating class of the newly formed Masters of Fine Arts at the School of Visual Arts where I received the Paula Rhodes Award for Special Achievement in Computer Art. In 1995 while working as a 3-D animator in NYC I started teaching at NYU's Center for Digital Applications. Currently I split my time between teaching and running my own creative service company. On the academic side I teach creativity to students at Hofstra and St John’s University. I've lectured internationally in Taiwan, China, Jamaica, London, and South Africa, organized presentations with industry leaders, won several industry awards, and published on bridging the world of theory and practice. Professionally I create animation for both Television and the Internet. A partial client list includes, Grey, Ogilvy & Mather, HBO, CBS Sports, Nickelodeon, Panasonic, EMI Music.
