He was previously a faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard University, and has taught since 1984. His experience with digital media dates back to the early 70's when a series of early research efforts with remote main frame computing culminated in the production of an experimental computer animated architectural walkthrough shot in 16mm.

In the early 80's, he returned his attention to digital media, introducing computer aided design into the offices of Venturi Scott Brown and Associates, where he worked as a project architect and CAD manager. While at VSBA, he won the competition to light the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philadelphia; completed in 1987 the project was notable for its early use of digital technology to control a responsive animated lighting installation. In the late 80's he joined the offices of Michael Graves Architect, serving as CAD manager and digital media consultant to the products department.
