I've managed teams of 40+ artists across multiple continents. I've created cutting edge cinematic visual effects for movies like Matrix Reloaded and Shrek 2. I've invented completely new interactions on impossible products at Apple. I can draw from a myriad of skills and experiences when "the process" goes out the window...and it always does. I can draw, paint, code, design, and lead. I solve complex problems with integrated, holistic, and meticulous thinking. I breaks the rules.
