More about me

I've been in the visual-effects industry for most of my career. I got my start as a hardware engineer at Masscomp, then moved into graphics software at Masscomp, then Thinking Machines, and eventually as CTO of GenArts (now part of BorisFX). I still do some consulting work as a fractional CTO and graphics/vfx developer.
I spend my non-work time traveling, playing and listening to music, sailing, hiking, puttering around with Emacs and building things.
