I’m a production designer, SFX makeup artist, and scenic painter who loves all things tactile, textured, messy, and magical. I earned my B.A. in Production Design for Film from DePaul University, where I spent most of my time transforming The Theatre School’s Paint Deck into a second home.

Whether I’m building practical effects, creating a gnarly bruise or creature look, or painting a massive scenic backdrop, I’m happiest when my hands (and usually my clothes) are covered in paint, latex, or fake blood.

I thrive on collaboration and storytelling—taking an idea from sketch to physical reality is what drives me. My work lives at the intersection of art, problem-solving, and illusion, and I love creating pieces that make people look twice.
