To be an integral part in the development and production of performance capture technologies and techniques.

Office of Admissions at Purdue University		[Aug 06 - Current]
Senior graphics artist and programer for the department which, through various projects, has     collborated with the bursar office, enrollnemnt managment, and Purdue Marketing and Communications in design, fuction, and implementation of ideas. Tools used would include: php, java/javascript, mySQL, html, Adobe Photoshop and Premiere.
Envision Center for data perceptualization at Purdue University		[May06-Aug06]
Developed a virtual reality experience of a specific hospital room for Acsension Hospital and Bremner Health.  CAD Drawings were imported into 3D studio max and OSG/VR juggler was used for real-time integration and user interaction.
Team leader for a series of Nanotechnology animations presented at the grand opening of the new $58 million Birck Nanotechnology Center at Purdue University. Extremely fast paced work environment, coordination with sponsors, modelers, texture artists, animators, and compositors, as well as problem solver and team director. Tools used would include: Maya/MEL, Combustion, Photoshop, Premeire.		[Aug05-Aug06]
Collaborated with the Entomology Dept. of Purdue University to create various 3D insects for the use of simulating island ecology and biodiversity in an ecosystem. This was developed by means of virtual reality technologies. Modeling was done in Maya 6.0; texturing and exporting into OSG was done in 3D Studio Max 6.0.		[June05 - Aug06]
Computer Graphics Dept at Purdue University		[Jan06-May06]
Responsibilities :       -Research assistant that was put as lead director on many fast paced projects. Some projects         would include virtual reality learning methods, data glove gesture recognition, and industrial         visualization and game design (NSF funded).       -Lead animator and compositor for three animation/motion graphics pieces to represent         Purdue at Siggraph 2006.       -Instructed a short series of lectures concerning motion capture production.         From hardware set-up to final render using Motionbuilder and Maya.
