SIGGRAPH 2005
I manage development teams who utilize free, open source components to build web-based, back office applications. I also founded Conoa, Inc. in order to produce high-quality rendering software for video-based visual effects. Through these experiences, I have seen both sides of software development, open source and proprietary. I have attended every SIGGRAPH since 1991. I contributed images to the 1992 Technical and Stereographic Slide Sets and the 1994 Application Slide Set. I was a course reviewer for SIGGRAPH 1998 and 1999 and participated in Emerging Technologies/Digital Bayou in SIGGRAPH 1996. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science from Cornell University in 1989.
