About Me

I have been creating technical solutions for ā€¦. quite some time for many different artists, theater makers and dreamers. Iā€™m currently the Technical Director at Playwrights Horizons where I work with technicians, actors, playwrights and the administration to realize designs and put them onstage. I graduated in 2023 from the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale, with a Masters Degree in the Technical Design and Production Program.

I am also married to an incredible woman, Mia Haiman. We have backpacked portions of the Appalachian Trail, earned our SPRAT rope access training certification, run Spartan Races together, completed grad school together and went scuba diving for our honeymoon in Grenada. See the Video below.

Prior to Yale, I was living abroad in Abu Dhabi working at the New York University Campus as a Technical Instructor of the Scene Shop. While in Abu Dhabi, I greatly enjoyed the experience of being immersed in a new culture, in a diverse community and having the ability to experience new activities, such as dune bashing, scuba diving (Advanced PADI Certified) and camping in the desert. No matter were I go or what I do, safety is my number one priority.
