Art Direction
As Director of Art at 4DD Studios in Roanoke VA from 2007-2013  I was responsible for
developing designs and leading production of sculptures, themed environments and museum exhibits for clients across the nation. I trained our artists in the use of materials including: gypsum, plastic, foam, wood, vinyl, and silicone. While there I researched and acquired new techniques and technologies for the company. I was responsible for product pricing and project management as well as training and evaluating all employees. 

In addition, I was the sole person who programed and operated the large format CNC router, capable of foam, wood, composite, metal and stone milling. I also operated two 3D laser scanners and their accompanying software.

Our notable projects included:
The Skokie Holocaust Museum and Education Center, Skokie, IL
The Hall of Heroes Display, the Pentagon Building, Washington, DC
The Las Vegas Museum of Natural History, Las Vegas, NV
