About

I'm an award-winning architectural lighting designer.  I've completed 250 projects throughout the U.S. and around the world.  That includes work on many different project types - offices, schools, healthcare, museums, hospitality, restaurants, residential, exterior and more.

I have a long history of teaching architectural lighting design and controls -- first in colleges and universities and more recently for practicing professionals (architects, engineers, lighting designers, electricians, etc.).

I've given presentations and taught hands-on workshops at conferences in the U.S. (such as LightFair and other conferences).  I've also given seminars and classes in lighting around the world -- for example, in Ningbo, China; at the Lux Pacifica conference in New Delhi, India; and presentations to architects in Chennai and Bangalore.

I have written extensively about lighting and controls topics for many years.  I’ve also held many leadership roles in professional organizations such as the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD) and the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES).

Aviation

I'm also a licensed private pilot.  I'm an Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association Mentor and an Experimental Aircraft Associatio Young Eagles pilot.  I take boys and girls on free flights to introduce them to the joys of aviation.​​

 

I've flown friends around the Statue of Liberty in NYC ... over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco ... ​and between the islands of O'ahu, Moloka'i and Kaua'i in Hawaii.
