LIGHTING / VISUAL DESIGN.           

In a world that seems so emotionally disconnected and cold at times, my goal as a designer and an artist is to evoke emotional responses within the viewers. Whether it be reminiscing on good times from our childhood and the kindness of humanity, or empathy and grief for the state of the characters and how it relates to society and people. During my collaborative journey, I love to dig into the questions: "Why this? Why now?” and have a true understanding of the experience from an audience's perspective. Lighting and art is not about the content itself, it is about using those tools and my knowledge to make the message get across within a collaborative process. 

I am currently a working professional within the entertainment industry. I have an M.F.A. in Lighting Design & an M.S. in Arts Technology from Illinois State University in Normal, IL which was obtained in 2020. I have received my Bachelors of Science from Michigan Technological University majoring in Theatre and Entertainment Technology and a minor in Art in 2017.
