I am currently (June 2010 - January 2011) enjoying a six month sabbatical in Singapore. During this time I will continue to stay active posting travel stories, tecnhology news and more via my Facebook, Vimeo, Twitter and Flickr accounts.
A travel blog will be coming online shortly.
I am an award winning New Media Designer who has had the good fortunate to work in both the academic and professional worlds. I work in a number of areas from web design, Flash design, motion graphic design, video editing and large scale projection design and development for professionally staged events. A number of recent projects can be viewed on my work site, and on my projection design portfolio.
From the Fall of 2001 to the Spring of 2009 I worked as an Assistant Professor of New Media at the University of Cincinnati within the College-Conservatory of Music's (CCM) Electronic Media Division. In addition to working as an Assistant Professor at UC, I was fortunate to work in Munich, Germany during the summers of 2006 & 2007 lecturing at Munich's prestigious Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität as part of the Munich-Summer Curriculum.
From the Spring of 2009 to the summer of 2010 I worked as the Instructional Technology Manager at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, California, where I was responsible for 6 Instructional Technology Analysts (ITAs), the Faculty Innovation Center - (The FIC) housed in the newly constructed $55 million William H. Hannon Library, and the administration of LMU's Blackboard Course management System.
I am a creative a heart who loves nothing more than taking on new and rewarding creative challenges. One of my personal joys is travel photography, discovering a new country or city through the lens of my camera. A number of my images reside on my Flickr page, while new time-lapse experiments can be found on my Vimeo page.
Born and raised in Leeds, England I moved to the USA on the verge of turning 20 to attend the prestigious College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning (DAAP) at the University of Cincinnati. From the Fall of 2001 to the Spring of 2009 I worked as an Assistant Professor of New Media at the University of Cincinnati within the College-Conservatory of Music's (CCM) Electronic Media Division.
In the spring of 2009 I left the University of Cincinnati, and headed West to Los Angeles, California to explore a new exciting and challenging opportunity at Loyola Marymount University (LMU | LA).
While at LMU | LA, I worked as the Instructional Technology Manager within the ITS Dept. Projects completed at LMU include the launch of the new Faculty Innovation Center (The FIC) within the new $55 Million William H. Hannon Library, the launch of Blackboard 9 as our Course Management System, and branding, and general support for EduSoCal'10, the Educause regional conference held at LMU in late Spring 2010.
I am currently based in Singapore, enjoying a six month sabbatical.
