I have over 15 years of experience in 3D design and have worked as a 3D exhibition designer on several museum projects including: 1) the Imaginarium in Anchorage, Alaska; 2) Phaeno in Wolfsburg, Germany; 3) the EcoTarium in Worcester, Massachusetts; 4) the Denver Science and Space Museum in Denver, Colorado; and 5) the San Mateo History Museum in San Mateo, California. Designing for museum environments has provided a context for me to integrate my skills in industrial design, environmental design, and exhibition design to create cohesive platforms, aesthetics, and content-rich environments.
