Summary

Working musician and Lighting Designer, who puts the musical, physical and visual needs of whatever band artist or ministry I'm playing with above my own. I apply music theory and I understand song form, so I can program the most musically fitting lighting that also helps to illustrate the meaning of the lyrics, and the overall story of the songs. I'm thorough in preparation, and I always make an effort to be punctual.
