Bio:

SIGGRAPH 2022

I am the group CTO at Animal Logic, the preeminent animation and VFX studio in Australia and Vancouver. Having graduated from Harvey Mudd College with a degree in computer science, I went on to work for several companies within the industry across all aspects of production and technology. Over 25 years, I have held a variety of senior positions as a technologist focusing on both visual effects and animation. I have volunteered my time to SIGGRAPH since 2001 as a juror, program chair, and advisor, including the Computer Animation Festival in 2003 and the SIGGRAPH Asia Business Symposium in 2014. Though working in the Australian time zone, I live in Los Angeles with my son and dog.
