I live in Santa Cruz, Ca. and spend my free time enjoying my town, surfing, hiking, biking, socializing, and relaxing. I'm currently working as a visiting researcher at the Institute for the Future contributing to Technology Horizons and the Ten Year Forecast agenda. I spent 10 years working at Adobe Systems, Inc. and helped manage the development of the Adobe Atmosphere immersive world platform, as well as the 3D authoring and viewing component in Adobe Acrobat. On the side I'm a semi-professional music producer with some of my work represented at N8UR, while also exploring digital solutions to the many analog problems confronting the Santa Cruz community.
