When I am not working I am…

Still whole-heartedly involved with lighting. Architecture and lighting go hand and hand and cannot flourish without each other. Bringing architecture to life, using light and shadow to create form, is an adventure. I have loved lighting since I was 15 years old. It has shaped my life and I can’t and don’t want to turn it off! (Pun intended) Lighting affects every person in every moment of all their days and I’m lucky to be able to help shape the built environment to help people enjoy and thrive in their world.
