About
A path that kept moving.
Theme parks came first, then large-scale cruise ship installations. Lockdown pushed me freelance, working as a designer and operator across live events. These days I split my time between a confidential project I'm calling Project Nectarine, and Lightco Ltd., my own lighting design, install, and production consultancy.
