If good design is found in the nexus of imagination and reality, then my goal as a designer is to constantly seek to close the distance between those realms—and if I can’t do that then I need to at least come up with some pretty cool tricks.

I’ve spent my whole life around live entertainment, growing up in Nashville, getting a degree in Theatre and English from a small liberal arts school, and then going to work for one of the largest entertainment companies in the world, building and designing shows for their global portfolio of theme parks and resorts. I’m always looking at the future of entertainment, and how we can find new ways to immerse, engage, and inspire each other in our creative endeavors.

When I’m not working, I’m playing tabletop RPGs, or playing with my dog, Rocket, or alternatively, playing tabletop RPGs with my dog, Rocket.

I love science fiction and fantasy, video games, comic books, and any DIY-gadget you can run from a microcontroller.

After securing a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2009, I spent a year and a half working on home renovation projects in Lancaster, PA, flipping several properties. In 2010, I began my career drafting plans for residential and commercial photovoltaic systems in the fledgling Pennsylvania solar industry. I joined Nimblist in 2012 as the primary draftsman and moved on to Technical Designer and a leadership position in the Design Department.

When not in the office or directing quality assurance on-site, you can find me angling local waterways, or working on my 19^th century Victorian era home.
