Saham Ali
Director of Information Technology
Saham Ali has come a long way since he started tinkering with his first 80x86 in 1993.
After creating Osceola County's first school web page for Kissimmee Middle School in Florida, he knew that he was destined to work with computers, digital media and computer graphics.
Saham's early introduction to 3D and computer graphics in high school was with the Apple LCII's LEGOLOGO, 3D Studio Max, and LightWave and he was soon creating logos for the morning announcements.
Then he started his own company called DVNT Computers and put his knowledge to work.
After high school Saham attended The DAVE School to further his knowledge in computer animation and the science of visual effects.
His first break after graduation was with Ron Thornton; that job took him to England where he worked on Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet.
With credits ranging from TV series and PC video games to architectural models and other freelance projects, Saham joined The DAVE School staff to help push the computer animation and visual effects technology envelope.
