The Hand
From a young age, art was my discovered escape. Color, texture, and form fed my imagination. I started carving wood at 6 years old. The feeling of accomplishing something of my own and the encouragement from the people around me has driven me all these years. I graduated with an art degree from the University of Washington in 1987. I then went straight into the lighting industry in New York City. Hired as a young engineer/designer, I developed many lighting products and learned material processes and production. For over 30 years, I have continued to develop, design, and invent lighting products, and returned to my roots in the Pacific Northwest as the National Sales Manager for Seattle Lighting. At this time in my life, my creativity is even more important and exciting to me, having years of life experiences and tools now available to me. I’m now at a place to imagine, create, and love like never before.
