Producer · Technical Director · Audio Visual

Creative. Innovative. Professional Execution.

Audio visual producer and technical director with 15+ years across audio, video, LED, projection, and rigging. I consult with clients and producers on technical approach and show design, then engineer the systems, documentation, and signal flow that make those plans real. Typical work includes technical direction, LED engineering and overseeing installs and builds, programming large-format displays and processors, and planning and executing projection mapping for unconventional surfaces and complex multi-projector setups. On site I lead or support crews as V1, LED engineer, projectionist, A1, or utility, advancing shows, reading CADs and plots, and working with producers, show callers, stage managers, and venue teams to keep high profile corporate and entertainment events on brand and on time for audiences up to ten thousand.
