MISSION

Blend the realms of light, sound, and design to create immersive and compelling experiences
to illuminate people, places, & things.

I'm an audio visual artist proficient in production and post-production for video, audio, and graphic projects for over 20 years.

DESIGNER

From an early love of drawing, to my education in fine arts and music, I've gained an understanding of form and composition. I've been lucky to have a client base that pushed me in many directions and forced me to learn on the fly. This wide array of projects evolved from graphic design, to video, to interactive projects, yet everything I create is based upon on the design concepts I've learned... and continue to learn. I consider myself a life-long student of the arts.

PRODUCER

Being a music producer was the dream, yet while getting my degree in audio production, I took a video editing class and was instantly hooked. I purchased my first DSLR camera not long after that and began making videos. After a stint working at a recording studio, I found myself at a video production house making videos, animating graphics, and authoring DVDs. (Yep, it was that long ago.) Technology has changed a lot, yet my foundation is based on the same concepts I originally learned ... and continue to expand upon.

MUSICIAN

I was originally a trumpet player, turned singer, turned drummer, turned DJ, turned audio engineer. I've experienced many sides of the music business. Working  festivals of all types has given me an acute sense of what inspires attention. It's all about the dance of light and dark, loud and quiet, fast and slow. I'm driven to create unique offerings in composition and form that hopefully spark interest in the minds of those that experience them.

ARTIST

Currently, I busy myself with projects that mix all of the aspects I love... audio, video, design, and more. Over the last decade, I began producing light art sculptures from wood, aluminum, acrylic, and LEDs. I also VJ (like a DJ but with video loops) when I get the chance to light up an event, wall, or screen. (More about this on the Lambent Visuals site.)

My goal is to make art that combines all of my talents in collaboration with people that get it. Might you be that person? Contact me.
