He then took up positions at the Caulfield Institute of Technology from 1973-1974, East Sydney Technical College in 1975 and California State University, San Jose, in 1977. Returning to Australia in 1978, he worked as a senior lecturer at Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney, until his retirement in 2007. He has now become an honorary senior lecturer with SCA and works full-time in his own studio. His training with the avant-garde Sodeisha group had a strong influence on his style, which is highly experimental. He signs his works with his initials and the year or an incised 'Shoji’.
