Flagstaff, Arizona, United States
With a decade of experience in live events design, installation, and operation, I'm ready to tackle whatever project the industry has in store for me. I specialize in lighting and audio systems design and operation for theatre, houses of worship, and experience based production. I'm especially in-tune to the needs of small venues and events that aren't as well serviced by large rental houses. I always consider the entire guest experience from first impression to final goodbye and make sure to integrate or operate any system seamlessly into the greater venue or event environment.
