I began my career at Walt Disney Imagineering in 1987. Working as a show designer I was able to follow projects from concept through construction implementation. I spent time in Paris working on Discovery Land in Euro Disneyland. There I produced several attractions such as Space Mountain, Le Visionarium (or Circlevision theater), and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. I created two audio animatronic robot figures for Le Visionarium, which received U.S. design patents.

From 1996-2002 I was Vice President of Design for Sega Gameworks, a joint venture between Sega, and Hollywood based entertainment company Dreamworks SKG. We developed and executed family entertainment centers across the US and several international locations. During this time I participated in design presentations to Hollywood executives including Jon Snoddy and Steven Spielberg. We created new video game attractions such as Vertical Reality and Game Arc; and implemented some of the first networked game experiences for the public.
