Meditation

What could be more awesome than designing meaningful, useful, interesting experiences that are unique to each person, using the technology of their human system—their mind and body?

For the last 14 years I have studied yoga and meditation one-on-one with my mentor and colleague, Marcel Allbritton. I have also continuously participated in formal programs and courses offered by Marcel’s mentor, Chase Bossart. Chase was a long-time student of Mr. T.K.V. Desikachar, who studied with his father, Sri Krishnamacharya.

I blend these perspectives with my expertise as professor of interactive media, user experience, and serious games to create meditation experiences.
