ABOUT
ABOUT ME
I am dedicated to creating magic, whenever and wherever possible.
Humor, empathy, enthusiasm + details, creativity and presence are the principles that I live by and are the foundation of how I design for every day life. A passionate specialist in the human experience, stemming from a life time study of theater and design. A dedicated yogi who looks at the world with child-like wonder and never-ending play. After a decade living in New York City, I have brought all of the wisdom, grit and inspiration I accrued, to the west coast.
WHAT I'VE DONE
From splashy large-scale productions (The Apollo Awards, Corque, Revolution) to products/programs (Experience Method, Theater Connects, TFP) and internal operations (Crozier Fine Arts, The Future Project), I have used empathy, vision and innovative design to create engagement and emotional impact across organizations, industries and events.
