Presage Software / Human Code / Sapient

Creative Director

Presage Software provided educational games and rich multimedia entertainment development for software publishers, Broderbund, The Learning Company, Activision, Interplay, GT Interactive, Sierra Online, and others.

Hired in 1992, as the first artist on staff, I was instrumental in expanding Presage’s development capability to include full-service interactive art production focused on entertainment and educational CDROM titles.

• Provided primary visual and interaction design for all original titles produced at Presage.

• Hired and managed art group of 6 permanent and 25 contract staff over 7 year period

• Directed all art production design, bidding and scheduling, resulting in 16 consecutive profitable quarters and a 60% increase in division revenue per year

• Successfully implemented 46 educational and entertainment titles

In late 1998 Human Code, Inc. of Austin, Texas, acquired Presage and we became Presage Studio.

In 2000 the company was acquired by Sapient and a large part of the team then became part of Sapient Interactive.
