At Ambling, John not only created computer-generated visual effects for the groundbreaking TV series seaQuest DSV (and later seaQuest 2032) but also supervised the team behind the creation of the first ongoing visual effects for the Star Trek series franchise with UPN's Star Trek: Voyager.

Multiple Eden FX team members won Visual Effects Emmys and VES Awards and recognition during this period.
In 2013, John founded Muse VFX, serving as president, Creative Director, and Lead VFX Supervisor. His belief in the importance of team culture and collaboration has won him the loyalty of many talented people who continue to help make Muse VFX a thriving, evolving force in the visual effects industry.
