He is a twenty year veteran of the animation and video game industry having worked for such notable entertainment companies as Google, Electronic Arts, Disney, Activision, Mattel and the television show "SouthPark". His work spans a broad range of disciplines, ranging from traditional sculpture to highly technical media such as Virtual Reality and 3D Printing.
