      Background
    I'm an Australian living in New York. I moved to the US in 1994 to work as Design Director for a Barry Diller funded start-up.

    That start-up, PersonaLogic, was bought by AOL in 1998. During that period I worked with some really smart people who helped me understand the true meaning of the word creative.
    I also learnt the meaning of the terms, robust and scalable.

    The best possible project is one where I get to visualize, improvise, realize, surprize.

    I publish an online magazine called Culture Now.
    The site combines all my interests - design, art, architecture, interaction and it provides a living demonstration of the sort of project I like to work on.
    I created the concept for Culture Now, designed the database, the application code, the interface - and I function as the editor in chief and occasionally write articles.

    I work with a small team of hand-picked experts to create extraordinary solutions.

    Si Habla: CMYK, RGB, HTML, CSS, FLA, XML, SQL, BPM, and upward revenue stream dynamics.
