Recent Work
I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. After high school I moved to New York to attend New York University where I studied Set Design, Art History and Architecture. I graduated with honors and a BA in Art and Design Studies.
I am currently working as an exhibition design assistant and a freelance set designer for film and theater. I have over five years of experience working in architecture and with several noted architectural firms. My production design credits include work with New York University’s Gallatin Theater Troupe, the New York Fringe Festival, the New York Film Academy and several independent production companies. For a more complete listing of my work and production experience, please see my Resume.
My favorite genres to design for are Science Fiction and Fantasy. Most of my production designs include customized props, graphics and art work that I design and build myself. I like to use to my designs to transport an audience to a new world, or to make this one just a little more surreal and extraordinary.
