Brian is not your typical educator. His motivation comes from his vivid memories of technology victories and shortcomings as a child. His father was calling him Rube Goldberg before it was cool. Merging his childhood passion for technology with his computer science degree and software industry experience makes Brian an educator that breaks the barriers of traditional education.
While attending the Academy of Art University in San Francisco Ian decided to take his love for 3D virtual worlds and make it a career. After graduating with a Bachelor in Fine Arts for Computer Animation he found work at a local game development studio. Ian has worked for over a decade professionally as a Designer, Instructor, and Artist. During this time he has worked with seven (7) different studios. This experience gained Ian an advanced working knowledge of building a game from the first concept, to final bug testing.
