I am The Lighthouse Group director and principal lighting designer for the Lighthouse Design Studio. I have been on this “lighting ride” for 27 years. I started integrated lighting into my landscape designs from the very beginning and 5 years later moved into the outdoor lighting business solely after falling in love with the mood, magic and totally new perspective that the illuminated garden space provides. I have been with Lighthouse since 2015 and am passionate about educating the next generation of outdoor lighting designers for the future of this art.

I am the photographer for Lighthouse and in my free time, I enjoy also documenting unique architectural and product photography and I repair, refurbish and shoot vintage film cameras. I enjoy hiking the Indiana woodland trails with my family when I need some fresh air.
