Currently hobby-working on multitouch-table open-source hardware (PHASEtable.com) and an open-source biometric systems for player testing (mechSense.com). Really hoping to expand what we think is possible from "computer gaming systems."

Dayjobbing at Oregon State University's Ecampus, developing small games and multimedia exercises to support online courses. Worked for NaturalPoint for 10 years prior, managing developer relations, marketing, product/web design, and videos for their optical tracking product lines.

In my spare time I run Solid Fuel Studios LLC, a small publishing/development company for myself and friends - which focuses on various artistic pursuits (comics, videos, music, design, story boards, open business experiments, and video games).
