E-mail: glenn.villaluz@rosalindfranklin.edu

Glenn studied Architecture for two years and worked as a draftsman, but did not envision Architecture as his calling and lifetime career. He worked for a short period as a designer of architectural stainless steel and glass-etched products, until he got enticed into the fantasy world of animation. He worked with many of the cartoon shows for Hanna-Barbera (Flintstones), Warner Brothers (Looney Tunes), and later for Disney (Goof Troops). Later in his life his interest switched to electronics and computers. He worked at CDW for three and a half years before accepting a position with the EEC as AV / IT Coordinator. He is one of the pioneers in the EEC Dept., and is regarded by his colleagues as the “MacGyver” of the EEC.
