MY STORYI am an award winning lighting design consultant focused on creating meaningful, memorable environments through light. I spent years working in various facets of lighting, including theatre, live entertainment, museum & gallery lighting, themed environments and much more.
I have over 10 years of experience in lighting design and have won multiple awards. I’ve worked as a freelancer for theatres, Nautilus Entertainment Design, Disney, and most recently Visual Terrain.
My work bridges the gap between technical precision and creative storytelling. I approach every project with the belief that lighting is not just functional—it is emotional, experiential, and transformative.
At Visual Terrain, Inc. I work as a Consulting Senior Lighting Designer. Previously, I worked at Visual Terrain full-time for over 6 years and led lighting designs for numerous projects. Here’s a couple of my favorites

MY APPROACHI collaborate closely with architects, designers, venue operators, and stakeholders to ensure every lighting decision supports the broader vision of the space.
My process is hands-on, detail-driven, and tailored to each project’s unique needs.
For larger projects, I have access to additional resources through strategic partnerships that will support the projects and assist me in the day to day design and documentation. For smaller projects, I am able to work with you one on one, reducing contract costs while still providing the client with top-notch lighting designs for their space.
