Festival installs and afterparties

How I work
From plan to signal check
I work best where technical prep, calm troubleshooting, and clean execution all matter. My value is not just operation. It is keeping systems understandable and stable before show time.

Background
Grounded in the work
Eight years across installs, touring, broadcast, and live production. I founded Digital Footprints LLC to design and build systems for defense and aerospace clients, while continuing freelance and IATSE Local 8 venue work in Philadelphia.
I’m strongest in environments where people need someone who can move between planning, operation, and troubleshooting without losing composure when the schedule compresses.
