ABOUT ME
I am a multiracial educator, artist, creator, designer, and storyteller based in Southern Maine and working around the country. I have been telling stories and inspiring audiences using light and video for the past 17 years. My career has taken me across the country and has allowed me to design for Theatre, Opera, Dance, Musical Concerts, and Events. I hold a Master of Fine Arts in Design from the University of Missouri-Kansas City with a focus on Lighting and Projection Design and am the Assistant Professor of Lighting Design at the University of Southern Maine where I bring my knowledge and experience to help shape the next generation of theatre professionals, focusing on developing complete storytelling.
