I started designing lights during my freshman year of high school at my church. Through working at my church I started meeting other people in the industry and ended up getting a job designing lights for concerts with a local production company. Later, through even more connections I began designing lights for a theatre in town and then an additional production company. In total I design lights for my church, two production companies and a theatre. But my ultimate passion is with concert lighting.

 

Not only do I design lights but I also design sets for my church. This is something that I accidently fell into and actually really like doing. A lot of the photos in the photo gallery display my lighting designs and also my set designs. Check out some more info below and browse through the photo and video gallerys too. Feel free to email me questions and comments!

I fell head over heels in love with lighting design.
