Welcome! I greatly appreciate the interest you've taken in my work, and invite you to look around and drop me an email if what you see interests you!

 A little bit about me:

In 2007 I received my MFA in Sound Design and Costume Design from the School of Theatre at Illinois State University. My Bachelor of Science came from the University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse in 2004.  I'm currently based in Peoria, Illinois, and working for various theatre companies and schools as a freelance designer.

My roots in theatre have grown up to include all sorts of hobbies: making music, designing and building custom clothing; designing and constructing jewelry; writing, both fiction and academic; roleplaying games, pyrotechnics,  dancing and drumming, and many other moderately indulgent pursuits.
