About Me

Bio

I am a multi-disciplinary evolutionary entrepreneur, interaction designer, information architect, ontological engineer, philosopher, archetypal cosmologist, noospheric researcher, inventor, and multimedia artist.

Skills and talents
I have worked in interactive media primarily within the Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) market for the past eleven (11) years honing multiple talents in Flash Visual Design, Animation, Interaction Design, User Interface Design, Information Architecture, ActionScript Programming, Development, and Innovation for social evolution. I've produced over 100 projects primarily in support of ecological, sociological, or culturally creative organizations and initiatives, such as: Harvard University's Center for Health and the Global Environment (CHGE), the California Institute of Integral Studies, the Institute of Noetic Sciences, the Buckminster Fuller Institute, United Nations World Environment Day, Julia Butterfly's Hill's Circle of Life, EarthDance International, PlanetWork, Species Alliance, Duane Elgin's Awakening Earth, Dave Ellis' Leadership Training, Richard Tarnas' Cosmos and Psyche, and AutoDesk. I have conducted classes on Virtual Reality development to grade-school children, and instructed a full series of Flash design and programming courses at the Center for Electronic Arts in San Francisco. I have initiated multiple innovative entrepreneurial projects that combine principles in Information Technology, Transpersonal Psychology, and Archetypal Cosmology to promote social evolution.
