      Dominion Commercial Services (DCS) began as a way for a high schooler to earn some extra income by exploiting his interest in architecture and virtual worlds. Within a year of starting, I was earning a substantial profit building and selling prefabricated virtual homes and buildings to people all over the world. By 2008 various corporations had taken an interest in virtual advertising, architecture and user interaction which opened new doors for my work. Working with companies such as Sun Microsystems, General Motors, and State Farm we developed interactive virtual classrooms, training material, collaborative meeting spaces and advertising environments to meet client criteria and satisfy their customer’s wishes. Today DCS continues to provide private and corporate consulting and design services for virtual environments. • Clients included: Sun Microsystems, General Motors, Linden Labs, Current.tv, Green Festival, Ray Kurzweil, Virtual World Builders, and State Farm • Collaborated with contractors on fast paced projects. • Collaborated with clients to determine design scope and create concepts to fulfill customer specifications. • Carry out the design-build process through delivery to clients. • Design marketing programs for clients within the virtual environments. • Design spaces from concept to (virtual) reality, including custom rendering textures.
