Bridging Creative Technology and Immersive, Narrative Storytelling

I’m a poet, writer, creative technologist, and media artist. I am particularly adept at bridging technology and narrative storytelling, with fluency in the Unity game engine, AR design applications Lens Studio, Aero, and Spark AR, 3D modeling applications Blender and Cinema 4D, video editing and motion graphics with Adobe Premiere and After Effects, drone photography, desktop 3D photogrammetry, Lidar-based phone photogrammetry, generative AI tools such as Midjourney and Runway, creative coding languages, GPU shaders, and volumetric capture using the DepthKit application.

My work as a designer concerns the expression of identity in digital space, both as it pertains to memory and storytelling—both individual and collective —and how digital spaces and places impact our health and our sense of self and well-being.

I am a subject-matter expert on the impact of media technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning; 3D design and the metaverse; and virtual, augmented, and mixed-reality—with a proven ability to develop fluency in technical, engineering-driven industries such as genomics, life science, enterprise hardware and software, and energy. I have several decades of experience leading teams to craft communication and brand strategy, with VP-level agency experience running global client account teams for major brands such as ExxonMobil, Pfizer, Frito-Lay and Illumina.
