I am a visiting professor in the Brown Computer Science Department, teaching introductory and intermediate computer animation to undergrads and grad students.

Previously, I have researched computer graphics techniques at Brown University. My focus has been on creating and using tools for artists. Recent work includes WYSIWYG NPR, or "What you see is what you get non-photorealistic rendering." In this prototype system, artists draw directly on 3d models to create stylized silhouettes, shading, and decal designs. I also worked on the Accessible Color Project to make color easier to use in graphics programs for both novices and experts. This work was published as Interactive Color Palette Tools.

I am exploring storytelling and integrating 2d and 3d animation techniques in my own work.
