I'm a Toronto-based musician, sound and lighting technician, and independent recording artist with over a decade of experience across live performance, production, and media projects. I thrive in collaborative environments, where I help bring shows to life from pre-production through showtime, while also pursuing my own music and film/radio projects in parallel. My work spans theatre, live music, recording, and media production. I enjoy blending technical skills with creative storytelling, whether masterminding a lighting cue for a Fringe show or crafting a documentary, radio segment, or music release that connects with listeners and audiences.
