Adam Kane Email & Phone Number

In addition to his solid technical foundation, Adam has a powerful creative vision for interactive computer technology. Interactive computer simulations are computer programs that replicate real-world situations. Done properly, they embody the concept of “learning by doing.” As such, their impact is six-fold: they educate, they train, they build relationships between the user and the subject of the simulation, they allow trial and error, they evoke powerful emotions only possible through direct experience and they ultimately increase profit. An interactive digital simulation’s no loss environment provides valuable direct experience that cannot be delivered through any other medium. Direct experience is the key.For more than 20 years, Adam has been coding, leading teams, and delivering custom products to major clients. Adam began his formal development as a computer programmer by maintaining UC Berkeley's Hass Media Lab. As early as 1994, Adam developed websites on a precursor to the modern Internet. After graduating from Berkeley, Adam catapulted across the bay and into San Francisco's dot com boom. Working for award-winning development studios, Adam honed his technical skills at breakneck pace, delivering projects against tight deadlines, on time, on budget and to the specifications of major clients. These clients include Adobe, Intel, Microsoft, Toshiba, Nike, Absolut, LeapFrog, Pearson Education, Pfizer, Farmers Insurance, and Miller Beer. After helping to champion the Rich Media Groups at Human Code and Sapient, Adam emerged as a fully-forged technical team leader. In 2001, Adam, Greg Meyers and Dave Vaillancourt broke off to start their own company, where Adam found his niche as Co-Founding Partner and Technical Director at ForgeFX. Since 2002 Adam has managed projects for industry leaders such as Prentice-Hall in education, Global Ground Support in airlines, and Farmers in insurance, as well as for non-profits such as Heifer International.

Listed skills include C#, Programming, Software Development, Game Development, and 12 others.
