I approach “Lighting Design” through the lens of a dramaturgical storyteller,
with an art-forward, painterly, poetic approach.
The lighting instruments are my paint-brushes; the stage, a canvas..
I am someone who believes that lighting is the “connective-tissue”, that brings the raw materials, of a multi-layered story, together into one cohesive visual.
It is the delivery system.
In my point of view, lighting is the emotional undercurrent that helps calibrate the journey of the audience. Telling the viewer where to look, but most importantly, how to feel, in each specifically curated moment!
I enjoy the creative process. Collaboration and team work is very important to me.
I love solving problems and contributing where and when I can.
I enjoy the responsibility it is to be the Lighting Designer, and will always be over prepared and ready to handle whatever comes at me to be able to best support my fellow collaborators and the collective vision put forth by the director and the words on the page by the writer.
I thrive under pressure, and appreciate a challenge.
