As Managing Director, I help leaders at nonprofits and Fortune 500 companies explore their best ideas and bring them to life through captivating, state-of-the-art broadcast studios.

With a career history spanning more than 25 years, I’ve worked with some of the most prominent scenic fabrication shops in the United States, supporting a diverse range of high-level collaborators. My leadership is rooted in cutting-edge, practical know-how to deliver custom solutions for even the toughest technical and fabrication challenges.

My previous work spans Broadway (Lion King, Aida, Annie Get Your Gun), network and cable television (NBC, ABC, ESPN, FOX), special events (Election Night in Grant Park for President Obama, Garden in the City for the City of Chicago), corporate events (Ford, GM, Jeep, UPS, Chase), museums (Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum), and architecture/branded environments (Disney, Universal Studios, Home Depot, Westin Hotel Group/Tishman Hotel).

Questions

1
What’s your favorite word?

Kindness. I feel that if everyone were able to just extend a bit more kindness to one another in our daily lives it would help solve many challenges we face today. Treat everyone as if they have the potential to become your best friend.

2
What’s your guilty pleasure?

Potato chips. Holding my consumption of these crispy salty treats to a moderate level is a challenge. I love them! All kinds and all types, but I do have my favorites… inquire within.

Describe your perfect Sunday.

Get up about 6 am to a clean house, have breakfast, and be out the door by 7 am for a nice long bike ride with friends. Get home around noon, shower, and eat lunch while reading The New York Times. Maybe take a 15-minute nap and then work in the garden or woodshop in the afternoon. Prepare and make a nice dinner with my family. After dinner, sit outside and read or chat while the kiddos in the neighborhood run around until dark.
