About me
I have five years experience as a professional lighting designer; including two years as the resident designer at Wayside Theatre in Middletown, VA, where I designed a mix of musicals and dramas. I recently received my MFA in lighting design from the University of Cincinnati-CCM, where I had the opportunity to begin designing on a larger scale. I am confident that my combination of practical work experience and solid educational experience has prepared me for becoming a contributing member of any artistic staff. I understand the level of preparedness, professionalism, and communication required to make the production process successful and enjoyable.
