Welcome to my online portfolio. To begin with, I grew up in Indianapolis, IN, but now live in Seattle, WA. I hold a BFA from Cornish College of the Arts as well as a Journeyman's card in the I.A.T.S.E. I have been working in the industry for over ten years and designing for the last five. My favorite part of lighting is the ability to change the way things are seen and experienced. In my spare time I enjoy building unique lighting fixtures and am always looking for the next challenge or adventure.
