I am a 3D modeler and designer, with an Associate of Applied Science in Animation and Game Art from Collin College. Over the past two years I have completed several projects regarding 3D art, from modeling still life objects and room models to storyboarding, modeling, rigging, and animating several short pieces. I am especially interested in game design and am always thinking about how to make my work more compatible with that platform.

Design of packaging, mascots, 3D and advertising motion design with unique music for promotion on social networks, but animated billboards and exhibitions. I use the Blender 3D program.

Grew up in Northern California. My father was a mechanical engineer and prolific inventor who taught me about innovation in his fully equipped workshop in a converted horse stable. I went to Japan when I turned 18, on invitation by Kobun Chino Otogawa to participate in an informal cultural exchange. Lived and worked with Kanjuro Shibata, bow-maker to the emperor, and Zen archery master in Kyoto for about 2 years. Instead of returning to the US as planned, I continued across fascinating Asia for 1 year and then studied and worked in Paris, France for 7 years as a fine artist. Then I returned to California, built on to a cabin and added a studio. Started an art and design studio and contract design service for manufacturers and suppliers to big box retailers for about 10 years. Then I moved to Austin, Texas and worked for Philips Lighting as head designer, (senior manager, R+D) for 11 years, and led a design team. My designs won a number of innovation and design awards and were on the cutting edge of LED lighting, as well as extremely market-successful. In 2017, decided to become an independent designer again, as well as an investor, (instead of moving to Boston to continue my rewarding corporate career with Philips). Since then I have been trading futures and options, and taking on design projects, as well as advising my wife with her startup business. I'll write a book about it when I turn 80 ;-)
