I have been involved with the Virtual Corporation at Virginia Tech since Spring 2000. (More information about Virtual Corporation can be found here) My work with VC has ranged from being a team leader to being the Chief Operating Officer of the entire class. During the years, I have also worked on several projects with the class with a major focus on the visualizations. Here are some of the animations and movies that I have done or been a major worker on: (Click on the image to view the video)

In addition to developing the above animations, I also created a web site to help manage day to day activities of the class. This site is referred to as the Virtual Corporation Intranet Site and is used by all the students in the class. From this site, students can do everything from sign up for their team at the beginning of the semester to submit their weekly status reports as well as submit reports and presentations for grading. There are also administrative functions that are used for the leadership to manage the class more effectively.
