Course Instructor on Autodesk Maya 2013.

Extended efforts far beyond my initial position by testing and establishing an export pipeline from Autodesk's 3D Modeling software, Maya, to NGRAIN's 3D military training software, thereby creating a test ready development environment, and GAC's first technical production capability. This led to the launch of new modeling and simulation business unit, and increased revenues beyond core business consulting services.Successfully secured GAC's first modeling and simulation contract with… Show more Extended efforts far beyond my initial position by testing and establishing an export pipeline from Autodesk's 3D Modeling software, Maya, to NGRAIN's 3D military training software, thereby creating a test ready development environment, and GAC's first technical production capability. This led to the launch of new modeling and simulation business unit, and increased revenues beyond core business consulting services.Successfully secured GAC's first modeling and simulation contract with the Canadian Air Force, which subsequently led to GAC securing another, high dollar value contract, thereby establishing GAC among its competitors as a supplier of computer based course-ware and 3D training. Created an Industrial Partnership Program between GAC, Carleton University, and Algonquin College to actively engage and guide the various Interactive Multimedia and Design faculties, in 3D technology curriculum development, resulting in a highly specialized employment pool, from which GAC has drawn skilled talent.Extended GAC's technical production capability to custom 3D software in the areas of Electronic Flight Bags and Electronic Performance Support Solutions and presented this capability at the largest military simulation conference in North America.Developed a strategic growth plan by establishing a formal 3D production pipeline for technical development with integrated core Agile Scrum Development practices thereby increasing the cost efficiency of managing the scope and technical depth of multiple project takings. Implemented a lab specific project tracking and reporting layer to optimize and manage dynamic task prioritization and provide real-time project status reporting as well as global and local situational awareness on all projects. Structured the marketing direction and design of all marketing material core the company, for everything from the Night Vision Goggle Computer Based Training Program to marketing presentations and packages Show less

Developed entire corporate rebranding from company logo to website and all collateral material.Acted as a liaison between the board of directors and the members of the society by collecting, coordinate and managing all assets of the Society's publications.

Restructured the traditional approach to teaching two dimensional technical drafting by incorporating the three dimensional component in all lectures and assignments.Developed course material to emphasis the non-two dimensional aspects of drafting by requiring, in all projects, that student analyze their physical environment and deconstruct it into any and all orthographic projections. Delivered a wide breadth of topics from an introduction of basic concepts and industry… Show more Restructured the traditional approach to teaching two dimensional technical drafting by incorporating the three dimensional component in all lectures and assignments.Developed course material to emphasis the non-two dimensional aspects of drafting by requiring, in all projects, that student analyze their physical environment and deconstruct it into any and all orthographic projections. Delivered a wide breadth of topics from an introduction of basic concepts and industry standards, to object creation and modification methodologies.As a result of the course students were able to effectively complete a final project outlining the entire design process from sketch ideation to final model production and presentation.

Digitally reconstructed a virtual three dimensional mass model of the entire downtown core and surrounding city environment using photographs taken on site.Precisely modeled and textured the Rideau Chapel using Architectural Drawings and reference images. This was part of the Rideau Chapel Restoration Project, the mandate of which was to digitally archive historic buildings and structures specifically using Alias’ set of software tools.Assigned as lead animator for the exterior… Show more Digitally reconstructed a virtual three dimensional mass model of the entire downtown core and surrounding city environment using photographs taken on site.Precisely modeled and textured the Rideau Chapel using Architectural Drawings and reference images. This was part of the Rideau Chapel Restoration Project, the mandate of which was to digitally archive historic buildings and structures specifically using Alias’ set of software tools.Assigned as lead animator for the exterior to interior camera animations, producing image sequences to be included into the final DVD production.Acquired working knowledge of Linux Red Hat Operating system and its interface with IBM’s DeepView rendering cluster. This was necessary as the ever increasing file sizes required an efficient platform to both work in and render from. Show less
