About Me
MY BACKGROUND
As I continue my professional journey, I like to think of my career as one big learning experience that continuously grows with each project and collaboration. As the Scenic Director of a prominent event production company in Southern California for over 8 years and a freelance scenic painter for live action in Los Angeles, I have learned a great deal. From the odd requests that we made happen, to the people I met and work with. My various positions afforded me learning opportunities on a daily basis along with the time to work in a hands-on manner alongside many talented people.
I am curently located in Los Angeles, CA and taking on projects within the film, entertainment and event industries. Have a look at photos from some of my past projects, and feel free to reach out with any questions!
