ABOUT ME:
I’m a New York based lighting designer. I love new works and bringing fresh prospectives to classics. Selected designs include Parker and Dizzy's Fabulous Journey to the End of the Rainbow (NY Fringe), Twelfth Night on a Brooklyn rooftop, Orpheus Descending in a Greenwich Village church, and the 6th Annual Bring a Weasel and a Pint of Blood Festival. Some of my honors are the Oregon Shakespeare Festival Richard L. Hay Fellowship in Lighting Design, an ETC-LDI Sponsorship, and participating in the USITT Young Designers’ Forum, Clambake, and the Prague Quadrennial American Student Exhibition. I have an MFA in Lighting Design from California Institute of the Arts and a BA from St. Lawrence University. I read a lot, bake sometimes, and play volleyball.
