<h2>About</h2>
<p>
I am a freelance stage lighting technician, lighting designer, and lighting systems technician with a passion for the
intersection of technical precision and creative expression. My journey in lighting began in primary school, driven by
a fascination with how light shapes space and mood. Since 2018, I’ve been freelancing alongside a career in software
engineering and IT, transitioning to full-time freelance work in 2022.

<p>
A perfectionist by nature, I value preparation, attention to detail, and reliability while staying flexible and
collaborative to meet the demands of live production. I strive bring professionalism, technical expertise, and a deep
commitment to elevating every production I work on, blending methodical planning with a love for creative
problem-solving and thinking on my feet when necessary.

<h2>About</h2>
<p>
I am a freelance lighting designer/technician with a passion for the specific intersection of technical challenges
with creative expression. My journey in lighting began in primary school, where I didn't want to perform in the
school play and got put behind
the technical desk instead. At that point, something clicked in me, and I've been driven to create new experiences
for audiences by the spark that was lit that day throughout the rest of my life. I grew to greatly appreciate how
light can affect mood and atmosphere, and I've found it fascinating to explore these relationships through technical
execution.
</p>
<p>
This passion for stagecraft is contrasted by a long-running interest in software engineering. Aside from working in
software for a living before transitioning into lighting full-time, I still program for clients on occasion. The
software projects I take on now usually involve some blend of art and technology. Such projects have included custom
integrations with external tools for live show concepts, automation tools for solo live-streaming and remote
production toolings to help enable remotely-produced events during social distancing.
</p>
<p>
A perfectionist by nature, I deeply value preparation, attention to detail and reliability without losing sight of
the spontaneity brought on by the creative process. While meticulous planning is of great value to any project, I
find the most meaningful collaborations exist in the space where a well thought-out plan meets the on-the-spot
collaboration that's unique to live productions. I always aim to bring professionalism and technical precision to
the table, blending it with a love for creative problem-solving and, in the end, a never-ending drive to make any
project the best version of itself it can possibly be.
</p>
<p>
I strongly believe that, in this highly specific and inseparable mix of art and technology, a new kind of magic is
to be explored.
