    Biography

    I have a Master's of Science in Technical Communication, and started in the "virtual world" as a technical writer. More suited to right-brained work, I got into web design, quit my day job and launched Blue Box Designs. Most of our clients were in the hospitality field and many needed virtual tours to enhance their websites. In searching for a provider, I noticed a real need for custom-designed interfaces and professional panoramic photography. As a hobbyist photographer at the time, I decided to rise to the challenge. From there, Circlescapes, Inc. was born. I have since enlisted help from technical/programming/design/production guru, Jared Varon, who is now a full partner. We focus on spas and resorts, but find that VR technology is great for retail, health care facilities, schools, museums and virtually every industry.
