I'm a graduate of Brooks Institute with an MS in scientific and technological imaging. I'd felt drawn to the methods of computational photography, including 360º panoramas, so my work since Brooks has been a mix of commercial photography and virtual tours. Earlier life passages included a 10 year stint as a programmer of accounting software, followed by 10 years as a graphic designer. While pursuing a master's in education, I was introduced to virtual worlds (think, Second Life). The immersive quality was imperfect but proved to be very compelling. This came full circle to ultimately enhance my interest in immersive spaces for real and imagined places. When I'm not working I like to bike ride, meet up with a friend or two at a local coffee house, or read reviews and methods of technological innovations. I'm sharing my life with a wise woman who also has excellent taste in wine and chocolate, and we have two delightful sister cats who bring such a wonderful warmth to the 1931 house we call home.
