Bio

Pioneer Panel 2026

Illustration is in my DNA.  I’m fascinated with all things microscopic. The extraordinary capabilities of today’s 3D applications coupled with my imagination has led to a range of explorations that tend to merge fantasy, biology and everything in between. I have been an animator and illustrator for over 30 years, and my passion has been creating engaging and highly interactive 3d content using state of the art software. My focus has been on medical animation – anatomy, both invasive and non-invasive surgical procedures, and medical devices. I also focused on creating 360 panoramic 3D imagery for VR. I’ve created original artwork for Fortune 500 Medical Device and Pharmaceutical companies including Abbot, Medtronic, and Johnson & Johnson, just to name a few.  I am retired now, but in my career, I brought projects to life through a mix of CG illustration, digital visualization, VR design and 3D modeling, using software that included Maya, Mari, 3DS Max, Marvelous Designer, Motionbuilder, Mudbox, Solidworks, Substance Painter, ZBrush, Vray, Phoenix FD effects and the Adobe suite of tools.
