Blackened Minnie with the Gold Shoes Sculpture

I'm a software engineer by profession. My professional career has allowed a deep involvement in the realtime computer graphics industry; from high performance 3D graphics processors to video game development. Education is a passion and I enjoy working with kids. I run a non-profit initiative to teach primary-school aged children to make video games. I'm involved in other non-profits, namely the Tulsa Foundation for Architecture, and the Child Care Resource Center. I've always been involved in the visual side of creation. I create art as a personal satisfaction. But it's wonderful when someone else appreciates and sees value in your point of view.
