Welcome
I've been involved in higher education for over twenty years as a student, an instructor, and a technology specialist. I earned a B.A. and M.A. in English at Ball State University and taught composition and rhetoric for a few years. I then studied film production and screenwriting at De Anza College, where I wrote and/or directed several award-winning short films (with my brother). I was an early adopter of the Web and served as University Webmaster for Santa Clara University for two years, followed by stints as an animator (for Blue Mountain Arts) and a design technologist for a Web consulting spinoff of SRI just before the dotcom bubble burst.
In 2006 I earned an M.A. in Instructional Technology at San Jose State University, where the faculty chose me for the "Richard B. Lewis Outstanding Graduate Student" award. Feel free to browse my portfolio. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Instructional Systems Technology at Indiana University and this is my doctoral dossier.
