Resch studied art at the University of Iowa receiving his Master of Fine Arts. Subsequently, he was a professor of architecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where he was affiliated with the Coordinated Science Laboratory. He went on to become a professor of computer science at the University of Utah.[8]
He famously designed the Vegreville egg,[when?] the first physical structure designed entirely with computer-aided geometric modeling software.[citation needed]
