Expert on font rendering, having been lead engineer for the TrueType rasterizer while at Apple, from 1987 to 1989. He set up his own company, Type Solutions, to market font development software (TypeMan, StingRay, Incubator), a Java development system, software for the Apple Newton and, later, a new rasterizer, T2K. This relied much less on hints in the font, yet produced results comparable with good TrueType fonts.

In 1998 Bitstream acquired Type Solutions and T2K is now fully integrated into Bitstream’s font rasterizer, now called Font Fusion.
