25 years in immersive installations, theatrical venues, and live production. Now available as a consulting Technical Director for the projects that can't afford to figure it out on opening night.
Tell me about your projectI take technically complex creative visions and make them real. From the initial spec through opening night, I'm the person who sees where the design brief meets the physical world.
Your immersive installation opens on schedule, runs without technical incidents, and delivers the audience experience you designed. I work with artists, studios, and experiential agencies from concept through opening-night commissioning.
Your venue gets AV systems designed by someone who understands what actually happens on stage, not just what's in the equipment rack. System design, vendor oversight, commissioning through first production.
System architecture, vendor selection, and integration oversight for restaurants, hospitality, corporate, and retail environments.
Independent advisory for whole-home AV, automation, lighting control, security, and networking. Recommendations driven by how you live, not vendor margins.
Automation and control logic for productions and installations that depend on timing, interactivity, or synchronized multi-system operation.
Four steps. No surprises.
Tell me what you're building. I'll ask a few questions, then I'll be honest: am I the right person, or would someone else serve you better? My reputation is built on honest fit assessment, not closing every engagement.
You get a specific proposal that shows I understood your project. Level of involvement, timeline, deliverables, and expectations. You know exactly what you're buying before anything is signed.
During the engagement, I own the technical layer. Regular check-ins, vendor coordination, and problem-solving. You focus on the creative and business side.
System specs, vendor contacts, runbooks, documentation. The institutional knowledge is yours. It lives in your files, not in my head.
I've spent 25 years at the intersection of art, theater, and live production. I've led technical production for Lightning in a Bottle for 10 consecutive years, served as Studio Director at Hybycozo, and helped bring 13 unique immersive exhibitions to life at Onedome Global, where over 100,000 visitors passed through.
The rare thing isn't any one skill. It's having worked across lighting, sound, projection, fabrication, show control, and smart environments long enough to see how they fit together in ways that specialists in a single domain usually don't.
I consult, direct, and design. I don't sell equipment and I don't perform installation labor. That independence means my recommendations are driven by what fits your project, not by what's in the warehouse.
Describe what you're building. I'll follow up within 24 hours with an honest assessment of whether I'm the right fit.
