MISSION
To blend the realms of light, sound, and design to create immersive and compelling experiences
to illuminate people, places, & things.
ARTIST
From an early love of drawing, to my education in fine arts and music, to my work in graphic design/motion graphics, I've worn many hats. With years of producing and working on video and audio projects in the studio as well as in the field, I've been pushed in many directions which required me to develop a diverse skillset. Music and art events are a contanstant in my life, and after many commercial projects for others over the last 20 years, I'm focusing my time/energy on creating and projecting my VISUALS (VJing), producing and sharing MUSIC (DJing), as well as MAKING modular, sculptural, illuminated art projects (set design) for festivals, theaters, events, and more.
VIDEO
Being a music producer was the dream, yet while getting my B.S. in Music from the Univ. of Colorado (where I was studying audio production) I took a video editing class and was instantly hooked. I purchased my first professional 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 evolved, yet my foundation is based on the same concepts I originally learned... and continue to expand upon as a life-long student of the arts.
MUSIC
I was originally a trumpet player, turned singer, turned drummer, turned DJ, turned audio and recording engineer. Working live events of all types has given me an acute sense of what grabs and holds attention. It's about the dance of light and the space in between. I'm driven to create unique offerings in composition and form that spark interest in the minds of those that experience them. My return to DJing has inspired me to do more audio production to syncronize with my projection-mapped visuals.
MAKER
Lately, my projects mix all of the aspects I love... audio, video, and design. Over the last decade, I began producing interactive light art sculptures from wood, aluminum, and acrylic.
Since you read all the way down here, thanks for your attention. My goal is to make more of my art (or collaborate on your art) with projects that combine all of my talents. My best work is still ahead of me. Let's go. Contact me here.
