About me
I have been drawing, painting, and creating since I could hold a pencil or a paint brush. The arts are a major element in my life and have made me who I am. I started performing when I was 11, and from there I couldn't stop doing theatre. Performing led me to discovering make up design, costume design, set design, and lighting. My directors were always coming to me for my input in those areas. I entered college as an acting major, but was quickly turned on by the production side. I quickly changed my major and got my feet wet in every aspect of production I could, although I still took an advanced acting class to keep in touch with the performance side and build a better view of production from the performers' side. During my sophomore year, I finally narrowed in on lighting design and stage management. While I enjoy the whole spectrum of production, lighting and stage management are what I truly love and excel at. I have also found that they go hand in hand, as I am frequently pulling double duty on productions. Going to school, doing shows, and working full time to put myself through school has made me incredibly proficient at time management. My ability to manage my time effectively, mixed with an open and artistic mind, lead me to create unique and fulfilling designs.Additional skills:
I am a third degree black belt, certified through the ITF, UTA, and IMAG. I have been doing martial arts for over sixteen years and have been an instructor for over ten years. I am also certified to referee internationally for the UTA. My martial arts experience has made me self disciplined, respectful, trustworthy, and confident, but humble. I am able to lead small and large groups of people from all ages and with a wide array of abilities and disabilities.

I am willing to tour and travel. Touring is my main focus, but I am happy to work anywhere!
